Weather app ☁️

About

A weather application built using React as part of the Manchester Codes Front end module.

Description

The aim of this project is to understand:

• React
• JSX
• Props
• Props validation
• State
• Stateful components
• Stateless (presentational) components
• React Hooks
• React Testing Library
• Request/Response
• Error Handling

Features

Users can search for the weather in a given location, if the location doesn't exist an error will be thrown. The user can also acquire more details about the weather on specific days by clicking the 'More details'.

Testing

This app was built using the BDD approach. The components were built first followed by the tests.

All tests can be found inside of the ./src/tests directory.

Users can run the tests for themselves, by running npm install to install the dependencies, followed by npm test to run the tests.
