Weather App

A simple web application built using Node.js, Leaflet.js, Express, MongoDB and Bootstrap. It allows users to identify their location, current weather (using the OpenWeather API) and air quality information (using the Open Air Quality API). Users can also see the location of all other users that have located themselves using the app, and can delete their location entry. The app is hosted on Heroku.

The app consists of the following pages:

1. A home page where users can find their location, weather information, air quality information and view it on a map.
2. A map of all previous locations identified.
3. A list of all previous locations identified.
4. A page that tracks the International Space Station (ISS) in real time.

Running the app

To install and run the app locally:

1. Install dependencies by using npm install
2. Rename .env_sample to .env and fill in their MongoDB Atlas username, password and OpenWeather API key.
3. Start the server by using node server.js
