Note
This is a personal project that scratched an itch of mine and is designed for my particular use case and hardware only. I don't accept contributions unless they improve the documentation or fix a bug.
If you're using different hardware or are missing a feature, please fork it and get creative too :).
This is a rewrite of the awesome weather_landscape
project. If you're confused what all this here is about, I highly recommend to
check out the original project. It has a lot of great imagery describing the
encoding principles, too.

I really fell in love with the idea behind
weather_landscape when I first discovered it, but
couldn't make it work on my hardware. So I was thinking. I wanted to get my
hands dirty with esp32, but couldn't come up with a nice project to make use of
it. So this was a perfect opportunity!
Apart from the features mentioned in the README of
weather_landscape, this implementation also includes:
- Fog: On a foggy day you will see wavelike lines below the clouds. The more lines there are, the heavier the fog.
- Sleet: Apart from rain and snow, sleet is also shown as a mixture of rain drops and snow flakes.
- Night mode: At night time the colors are inverted (white scenery on black background).
- Metrics: The server provides Prometheus metrics for monitoring. I use these to get alerted when the battery of the esp32 died, for example.
