The Norwegian Meteorological Institute offers its weather data as a global public good. It would be interesting to consider if we should allow the user to choose between the various configured weather data sources instead of just hard-coding one in the backend.

So now we are thinking let them choose on the front end?

Just a thought that have been having. Often I am skeptical of the OWM data and just want to be able to compare it with different data-sets. (Similar to how https://www.windy.com/ lets you select between like 5 different forecast models...)

Ultimately, it would be cool to support some kind of comparison view where the data was presented side-by-side....

Importantly, though, we would still want to be able to configure the list (one or more) of available data-sources on the backend that would determine which the user could choose from....

Before we do any side-by-side stuff, we probably need to fix the mobile view

But yeah, I'm down for an options endpoint that gets the available backends, then let's the request have an option for which, and if nothing is provided, fall back on the default backend.
