  • dotfiles

    My dotfiles. Ansible powered installation using stow to set up Neovim, Tmux, Alacritty, Zsh among other tools and scripts. (by Granddave)

  • This is a really nice service and I have used it for quite some time. Just a small reminder; to relieve the wttr servers, please cache the results on disk if you for example want to have a higher refresh rate on your tmux status bar.

    See my dotfiles repo [1] if you're interested in such implementation

  • weather_query

    Short and sweet weather API query tool written in Go

  • I'm going to add that if you live in Norway, YR has nice weather data available for free (required by law). Shameless plug for my little CLI tool when I was beginning to learn go:

  • late.nz

    Latency numbers every programmer should know

  • rate.sx

  • plugin-wttr

  • in ~ 2016 I built a plugin for on-my-fish to simplify the process of curling wttr.in https://github.com/oh-my-fish/plugin-wttr. From today I'm still using this plugin a lot. Checking out the weather on your terminal turns out to be faster than open a weather website or unlock my phone and check in out a weather app.
