OpenWeatherMap API
Current Weather:
GET https://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/weather
?q={city name}&appid={API key}&units=metricForecast:
GET https://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/forecast
?q={city name}&appid={API key}&units=metricGeocoding:
GET https://api.openweathermap.org/geo/1.0/direct
?q={city name}&limit=5&appid={API key}Response Caching:

- Forecast: 30 minutes
- Geocoding: 24 hours
State Management
Zustand Store (Client State)
- Current theme (light/dark)

Breakpoints
/* Tailwind defaults */
sm: 640px /* Mobile landscape */
md: 768px /* Tablet */
lg: 1024px /* Desktop */
xl: 1280px /* Large desktop */Mobile-First Example
// Stacked on mobile, side-by-side on desktop
<div className="flex flex-col md:flex-row gap-4">
<CurrentWeather city={city} />
<ForecastList city={city} />
</div>
// Full width on mobile, constrained on desktop

</div>Dark Mode Implementation
Theme Provider Setup
src/app/providers.tsx:
'use client';
import { ThemeProvider } from 'next-themes';
import { useUIStore } from '@/store/use-store';
export function Providers({ children }: { children: React.ReactNode }) {
const theme = useUIStore((state) => state.theme);
return (
<ThemeProvider
attribute="class"
defaultTheme="system"
enableSystem
value={theme}
>
{children}
</ThemeProvider>
);
}Dark Mode Styles
// Example component with dark mode
<div className="bg-white dark:bg-gray-800 text-gray-900 dark:text-gray-100">
<h2 className="text-blue-600 dark:text-blue-400">

</h2>
</div>Key Decisions
Decision 1: Component Library Choice
Question: Build custom or use existing library? Decision: Build custom components inspired by shadcn/ui Reasoning:
- Full control over components
- No unnecessary dependencies
- Easy to customize
- Learn component patterns
Decision 2: State Management
Question: Redux, Context, or Zustand? Decision: Zustand Reasoning:
- Simpler than Redux
- More powerful than Context
- Great TypeScript support
- Built-in persistence
Decision 3: Data Fetching
Question: SWR or React Query? Decision: TanStack Query (React Query) Reasoning:
- Better caching strategy
- More features
- Excellent TypeScript support
- DevTools for debugging
Decision 4: Styling Approach
Question: CSS Modules, Styled Components, or Tailwind? Decision: Tailwind CSS Reasoning:
- Rapid development
- Consistent design system
- Dark mode support built-in
- Responsive utilities
- Small bundle size
Best Practices Demonstrated
1. Component Composition
// Small, focused components
<SearchBar>
<SearchInput />
<SearchSuggestions />
</SearchBar>2. Custom Hooks for Reusability
// Hook abstracts away complexity
const weather = useWeather(city);
const { data, isLoading, error } = weather;3. Type Safety
// All components have explicit prop types
interface ButtonProps extends ButtonHTMLAttributes<HTMLButtonElement> {
variant?: 'primary' | 'secondary';
size?: 'sm' | 'md' | 'lg';
}4. Accessibility
// Semantic HTML, ARIA labels, keyboard support
<button
aria-label="Close modal"
onClick={onClose}
>
<X />
</button>5. Performance Optimization
// Debounced search
const debouncedQuery = useDebounce(query, 300);
// Memoized values
const sortedData = useMemo(() => data.sort(...), [data]);Conclusion
