Overview The purpose of this assignment is to create a simple App to display the current weather forecast using the OpenWeatherMap free weather API. Details of this API can be found at http://openweathermap.org/API. You will need an API key to request this data…

API Key : 5ad7218f2e11df834b0eaf3a33a39d2a Example Usage : curl "http://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/weather?id=7778677&appid=5ad7218f2e11df834b0eaf3a33a39d2a"

Objectives • Create a simple App that displays the current weather forecast for your devices current location, and display location and all relevant information returned in the UI. • Persist the response so that it can be retrieved again without having to make a further network request. • Schedule a request for every 2 hours to update and persist the latest weather response. There should not be more than 1 request in a 2-hour period. All background requests should only be made if Wi-Fi is connected. • Send a HTTP request to the OpenWeatherMap API to retrieve the current local weather forecast, and parse the response. • Produce clean and well formatted/documented code. • Include a 1-page document that should include all design decisions made, description of the App, and any thoughts on what you would do for a future release of the App.

Timescale We recommend that you spend no more than a few hours developing this App. We are mainly looking at how you approach this assignment and your coding style and ability.
