This project was born from the desire to approach for the first time the development on an ESP32; the aim of the project is to create a modern weather dashboard that looks great.
The project was and is carried out mainly in my free time; still today it is under development and improvements; as soon as I notice something wrong I will try to fix it. Feel free to report any kind of problems you will find.
Enojy the project and feel free to apply any changes to improve it! 😁

I want to thank Bastelschlumpf for providing the functions to get the data from OpenWeatherMap.
