OpenWeather Refined

OpenWeather Refined is a simple extension for displaying weather conditions and forecasts for any location on Earth in the GNOME Shell.

The extension is very configurable and does not use GNOME Weather.

Weather data is fetched from OpenWeatherMap including 3 hour forecasts for up to 5 days.

Contributing

Everyone is welcome to contribute! You can contribute code, or translations via pull requests.

Run make help for help on make targets and scripts useful for testing.

Translating

Translations are super helpful because once I forked this extension I have made a lot of UI additions, and I only speak English!

Translations can be made by editing the language's file ./po/*.po. Edit the msgstr field to the translation for the English in msgid.
