Step 1: Set Up Your Project
Create a new folder for your project and add the following files:
index.htmlstyles.cssscript.js
Step 2: HTML Structure
In index.html, add the following code:
htmlCopy code<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<title>Weather App</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="styles.css">
</head>
<body>
<div class="container">
<h1>Weather App</h1>
<input type="text" id="cityInput" placeholder="Enter city name">
<button id="getWeatherBtn">Get Weather</button>
<div id="weatherResult"></div>
</div>
<script src="script.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
Step 3: CSS Styling
In styles.css, add some basic styles:
cssCopy codebody {
font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
height: 100vh;
background-color: #f0f0f0;
margin: 0;
}
.container {
text-align: center;
background: white;
padding: 20px;
border-radius: 8px;
box-shadow: 0 0 10px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);
}
input {
padding: 10px;
margin: 10px 0;
width: 200px;
}
button {
padding: 10px 20px;
}
#weatherResult {
margin-top: 20px;
}
Step 4: JavaScript Logic
In script.js, write the logic to fetch weather data from the API:
javascriptCopy codeconst apiKey = 'YOUR_API_KEY'; // Replace with your OpenWeatherMap API key
document.getElementById('getWeatherBtn').addEventListener('click', getWeather);
async function getWeather() {
const city = document.getElementById('cityInput').value;
if (!city) {
alert('Please enter a city name');
return;
}
const url = https://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/weather?q=${city}&amp;appid=${apiKey}&amp;units=metric;
try {
const response = await fetch(url);
if (!response.ok) throw new Error('City not found');
const data = await response.json();
displayWeather(data);
} catch (error) {
document.getElementById('weatherResult').innerText = error.message;
}
}
function displayWeather(data) {
const { name, main, weather } = data;
const weatherResult = `
<h2>Weather in ${name}</h2>
<p>Temperature: ${main.temp}°C</p>
<p>Condition: ${weather[0].description}</p>
`;
document.getElementById('weatherResult').innerHTML = weatherResult;
}
Step 5: Get Your API Key
- Sign up at OpenWeatherMap.
- Get your API key from the API keys section.
- Replace
YOUR_API_KEY in the JavaScript code with your actual API key.
Step 6: Run Your App
Open index.html in your web browser. You should see a simple weather app where you can input a city name and get the current weather.Create a new folder for your project and add the following files:
index.htmlstyles.cssscript.js
Step 2: HTML Structure
In index.html, add the following code:
htmlCopy code<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<title>Weather App</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="styles.css">

<body>
<div class="container">
<h1>Weather App</h1>
<input type="text" id="cityInput" placeholder="Enter city name">
<button id="getWeatherBtn">Get Weather</button>
<div id="weatherResult"></div>
</div>
<script src="script.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
