Usage

minSdkVersion: 24 (Android 7.0)

1. Get a "current weather data" API key from OpenWeatherMap.

2. Open the WeatherAPI.java file and put your API key as the value for the API_KEY variable (line 21). It should look like this:

   private static final String API_KEY = "your-openweathermap-api-key";

3. That's it. You can either:

   • run the app in Android Studio in a virtual device. You will need to send the longitude and lattitude coordinates manually through the virtual device's extended controls window.
   • build an apk file for the app and install it on an Android device. The app will get the location coordinates automatically through the device's GPS sensor.
