droplet is an innovative weather web application currently in development by a passionate team of students dedicated to enhancing how we interact with weather data. Our mission is to provide users with accurate, real-time weather information in a user-friendly format, empowering them to make informed decisions about their daily activities.

This Weather App, droplet, is designed solely for educational purposes. We acknowledge that we do not hold the rights to any of the images referenced within the application. This project serves as a portfolio piece and is not intended for commercial gain.
