DEVLOG #4
Not going to lie this devlog was not necessary because I didn’t really code today I just made minor changes, i made this devlog just because the platform asked me to post another one before shipping but here’s a summary of my project:
This project involved developing a weather application that provides users with quick access to current weather conditions for cities around the world .Developing this weather application was a valuable learning experience that improved my skills in Python programming, API integration, and GUI design. Throughout the project, I overcame challenges related to data retrieval and error handling while creating a functional and user-friendly application. The project strengthened both my technical and problem-solving abilities

DEVLOG#3
Today I was worked up fixing all the small details like how when you enter a city and you get the weather and then after that when you enter an invalid city you still see the previous emoji and weather description; this ended up being an easy fix but the demo url version is a previous model so is the release on the github page, updating these things are the first thing im going to do tomorrow ,I’m also considering working on a popup bar for when you start typing a city’s name and according to the limited amount of letters entered it gives you suggestion; like the google search bar. So yeah that’s today’s summary, but most probably I’m not gonna do that since this is just my first project and i want to keep it light and simple ,instead what i will do is that I’ll start working on a more time consuming one and put more efforts into that . Anyways I hope to submit this project by tomorrow and this is probably me signing off from this project

This was my second day of working on this project and somehow i finished it! (kind of).Using the API keys to display the weather conditions of different places was vey easy. What took me 5 hours was me making stupid mistakes and taking a shit ton of time to correct them, and it was also my first time making a GUI project in python using PyQt6.I also realized that this was a very light, less time consuming project and I hope to keep on going to make harder, more complex and more time consuming projects. Wonderful Experience!
Btw: The reason I said “kind of” was because the moment at which I’m writing this I haven’t made the final touches like using fitting emojis, completing the project information (i hope i can by the end of day).

This was my first day of working on this project (a weather tracker application).
This was also my first time making a GUI using python ,I used PyQt6, though the tutorial I was following used PyQt5, converting was the easy part ,but I kept making simple mistakes! :like forgetting to call the self.initUI method, wrong indentation, and similar stupid ahh mistakes.
But overall, I found the project very interesting to work on as I learnt alot more about python than I previously new. I hope that I can keep posting updates about the project every day, without breaks
and I also hope to learn even more things!
