briefsky is a free weather frontend to a variety of weather providers, with an interface reminiscent of the late Dark Sky.

briefsky retains all configuration in URL parameters, so you can bookmark multiple locations or weather providers. briefsky is implemented as a client-side app. It doesn't collect user information, show ads, or store cookies.

briefsky currently supports the following weather providers:

• Open-Meteo (default)
• Visual Crossing
• Tomorrow.io
• Pirate Weather
• WeatherFlow Tempest

Some weather providers may require a free API key.

Install packages:

$ npm install

Run local development server:

$ npm run dev
