About:
A command-line weather client written in Go that fetches and displays current and forecasted weather conditions from the Dark Sky API. It provides a fast, scriptable way to check the weather directly from the terminal, with support for JSON output and location-based queries.
Key Features:
  • Fetches current, hourly, and daily weather forecasts
  • Provides clean command-line and JSON output for scripting
  • Supports location by coordinates, city name, or IP address
  • Written in Go for performance and easy distribution
Use Cases:
  • Quick weather checks from a terminal or shell script
  • Integrating weather data into custom automation or monitoring tools
Alternatives:
  • wttr.in – Web-based and curl-friendly service with more visual output, but not a locally installed CLI tool.
  • wego – Another terminal weather client with ASCII graphics, but uses a different backend (OpenWeatherMap).
