4 years ago, I posted about the weather service I did build. Back then, Serenum used OpenWeatherMap, but after a while they changed their API and I didn’t have any strength to make the changes in Serenum API.

Earlier this year, I started with the new version of Serenum without Serenum API (too much work, too little time), now using Open-Meteo. I released the first version last week as a beta and now I find Serenum enough finished to share it here on Lemmy.

Still in beta, though, since stuff needs to be improved. But everything(?) works as it should.

    This is an excellent, concise weather layout. Thank you.

    Also, the first time I’ve seen Tick-Risk on a forecast, which I didn’t even know was data available for our area.(Northern WA)

    I usually use 2 apps Forecastie(for the weekly graphs), and QuickWeather(for the weather radar timelapse.

    If those two features were combined with your layout… 🤗

      Thank you too :)

      I have a huge tick fobi so after I were out in the forest one day, I asked ChatGPT if it was possible to calculate the tick risk based on mainly soil temperature. The AI said yes and wrote the code for me. So I added it :P

      Weather radar timelapse would be a very nice touch. I’ll see what I can do.

    This is really nice. I notice that if I load the page for my city, then use “settings” to change the units on that page, then reload the page, the reloaded page is still in the old units. But that’s pretty minor.

    I’m more interested in an API for this than in the web UI anyway, since I might like to use it as a widget.

      I tried to recreate the issue you mentioned (settings’ not applying) and I can’t. The settings are being saved inside the URL. Change the settings again and see if you can re-produce the issue. If you can, check the URL. Are the values after /settings: the same as what you choose in the settings?

        Aha, it works now. I’m not certain but I think I might not have noticed before that you have to click “save” to make the settings work. On my screen that involves scrolling down. You might move the “save” button to the top of the settings screen to make it more obvious, and possibly call it “apply” rather than “save”.

        I do remember that the new settings persisted in the settings screen after switching to and from the main screen, and that was part of the puzzle.

          Alright :) I will try make the “Save” button sticky so it will always show and follows inside the settings while you scroll. Serenum doesn’t use any JavaScript, only HTML, CSS, and PHP.

            I think it’s enough to just put it at the top to make sure it is seen. It doesn’t have to be sticky. I’m glad there is no JS. It would be nice to not depend much on CSS, so that text-only browsers like Lynx will work. Though the little icons are an issue too.

              That is true. But we’ll see what happens at the end :)

              It would be nice to not depend much on CSS, so that text-only browsers like Lynx will work.

              I will install Lynx some day and try to make Serenum compatible with text-only browsers.

              Though the little icons are an issue too.

              I can add more icons :) If you have a good source of icons that are FOSS and that supports all kind of stuff (for an example air quality like pollen), please share.

      Thank you :) And many thanks for the bug report. I will look into it right away.

      Since people are asking for it, I have now added API to what to add.
