Very nice! Not as slick of a UI as Breezy Weather imo, but definitely close.

I use justweather i like its material you widget
Don't call OP names
Did you also read widget as midget?
I don't understand what you said
Pretend there is a comma and maybe an exclamation point like this:
I use justweather, i like its material, you widget!
Lmao i thought i was so confused. Thanks for the explanation.
Tried it, it's awesome. Recommended. Thanks for sharing!
Okay but it's a web app?
I also got confused by the wording and screenshots.
Designed to mimic the look and feel of a native Android app.
I mean it's an .apk file so why wouldn't it feel of a native android app?
But why is it built in html and js and css
No idea... You're right it's mosly written in kotlin for android :/
I'm not a dev but that's rather strange :/ if someone could chime in, thanks !!
The views are all just webviews. You can find all of the pages in the app/src/main/assets/pages folder, it's all html and css.
Their package name is also still com.example, their target sdk doesn't match their compile sdk, and also neither match with the target sdk in their AppManifest.xml.
So I'm guessing this is just someone who isn't really familiar with java or native android views or something, so just decided to build it in something they do know instead.
Thankss !!
Nope. It is an android app. The author is probably using some kind of webview to display the data, so html and css are for laying out and styling the components. This is pretty common nowadays
