Monolithic app to consume openweathermap API
This app is a monolithic app that consumes the openweathermap API to get the weather of a city. It has a simple UI that allows the user to enter a city name and get the weather of that city. The app is written in JavaScript and uses the express framework. It also uses the native fetch API to make the API call to openweathermap.
To use the app, simply enter a city name in the input field and click the submit button. The app will then make a call to the openweathermap API and return the weather of that city. The weather will be displayed in the UI.
The view is a simple HTML page with a form that allows the user to enter a city
name and a submit button. The form is submitted to the server when the submit
button is clicked. and use the enpoint /weather/:city to make the API call to
openweathermap.
The API is a simple express server that serves the data from the API openweathermap. The API call is made when the form is submitted.

- Clone the repo and run
npm installto install the dependencies. - Then run
npm startto start the API. The API will be running on port 3000. - Open a browser and navigate to the html or use live server from VSCode IDE instead
