It is not beautiful for me on Mobile
 help



Can you clarify? Is the rendering broken on mobile?

I just checked, and the responsive layout seems to render correctly on Android Firefox/Chrome and iOS Safari.

You can even save WeatherSense to your home screen as a simple progressive web app.


I don't like the color scheme with the gradients; nothing functionally wrong, just my reaction.

The gradients actually serve a purpose:

- You can see the weekly high/low temperature trends by scanning down vertically along the left.

- Redder color means warmer; bluer means cooler.

- The gradient is constant for all data plots, so you can visually compare the temperature across days and hours.

- The gradient block for each day goes from the high to the low temp for that day.

- Even the hourly temperature plot line is calibrated to the same gradient.

The sky background gradient is slightly superfluous, but it's very subtle and meant to emulate (a more vibrant) version of the actual sky.

For anyone who wants more gradients: there's a setting here: https://weather-sense.leftium.com/wmo-codes

I disabled those by default because they were distracting and didn't serve a purpose.
