Building a Weather App with Webix UI

Sir Ranulph Fiennes, a British explorer and writer, once said: “There’s no such thing as bad weather, only inappropriate clothing.” You may, of course, check the window to see if you need to put on a raincoat. But this is a bit old-fashioned, isn’t it? Today there are a lot of modern weather apps. They allow you to decide quickly and easily whether to take an umbrella with you in the morning or not.

Today, I’ll show you how to create a weather app with Webix components. You will be able to gather details about the weather in your city in one place. With just a quick glance, you can spot the temperature, humidity, wind speed, and UV index. A closer look will reveal the meteorological conditions, daily temperature range, and air pressure.

This app provides an excellent opportunity to show you a couple of our PRO widgets. Webix Pro offers a variety of HTML5 web widgets that are not included in Webix Standard. They all have their own distinct features and enhanced functionality. Our weather app is also an example on how to integrate a Google map into an app. If you are interested to learn more about such an app, keep on reading.

Creating a Location Viewer App with Webix UI

Just a couple of years ago, it was hard to imagine that remote work could be the norm of everyday life. But today, it is a common thing. A lot of employees don’t want to spend precious time commuting during rush hour to their workplace in the center of a huge city.

There are much more pleasant things to do instead. You can spend this time reading a fascinating book, drinking a cup of coffee and petting your beloved cat. All of these things can be done while sitting on a balcony overlooking the sea. Do you think it is only a dream? No! It is the daily routine of many IT professionals and not only.

Based on such specifics of work, the company’s managers may have additional worries. It is about tracking the location of staff and synchronizing their work schedules. And in this article, I’m going to show you how to solve such difficulties using the Webix components and third-party solutions.

30 Seconds to the App with Webix UI

Rockers from the “30 Seconds to Mars” band dreamed of reaching the “red planet” in 30 seconds. But, unfortunately, modern science has not yet achieved such heights. According to the famous astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson, we need about 26 million seconds for this journey.

Do you know what we can do in 30 seconds right now? Let’s try to create a small app using the Webix UI library and check if it is possible. The main idea and information for this article were provided by our client, an interview with whom you can read in our blog.

Creating a ToDoList app with Webix UI

Every day we have to deal with a huge number of different tasks. It can be a business meeting, dinner with relatives, yoga class, or just cleaning. To hold all these events in mind and get everywhere on time, we need to either have a phenomenal memory or use “the benefits of technological progress”.

It just so happens that I don’t have enough competence to give you advice on boosting memory 🙂 Perhaps a healthy lifestyle and proper nutrition can improve the situation, but that’s all I can share.

In this article I want to talk about creating a small ToDoList app based on the Webix UI components. This tool will help you manage your daily tasks more effectively and will always be right on the hand (on your phone or laptop).
