I decided to make a desktop app in Visual Studio with the use of C#. It includes a splash form with a rotating progressbar, a login and registration form, and a form that shows weather data.
- C# .NET
- Microsoft Jet Database, OLE DB
- OpenWeather API
More info about Microsoft Jet Database Engine.
- Create the database by using Microsoft Access.
- Create a table that contains a username and a password field.
- Go to View > Datasheet View
- Create credentials for admin
- Save as .mdb in the bin/debug folder of your project.
- Then install System.Data.OleDB nuget package, and type in using System.Data.OleDB;
- Look under Registration for the source code
OpenWeather Api here
- Create an account on OpenWeather
- Genereate an api key under [profile name] > My API keys
- I have converted the temperature to Celcius, but remove the method if you want to use Kelvin. The default temperature from OpenWeather is Kelvin.
