MatService is a cheeky (yet accurate) weather app built because everyone keeps asking me about the weather for their next adventure, and what to wear for it!
The web app is powered by Open-Meteo and the charts built using Chart.js. It’s easy to use and gives you a quick view of the day, week and what clothes to wear.
Also, just like all of my projects, it’s privacy centric. MatService is using non-invasive analytics by Fathom and the search stays in your browser storage and you only tell it your location if you want to (it defaults to Chch if you don’t but you can search). The location is used only to fetch weather – I don’t see it and it just calls the correct Open Meteo weather for that location.
It’s not totally perfect and I’ll keep adding updates (as I’m using it every day myself)
As always, forecasts can differ by region and elevation, check conditions before heading out.
Note: MatService.org is an independent passion project and has no connection, endorsement, or affiliation with New Zealand’s MetService / Te Ratonga Tirorangi. It doesn’t even use any of their data. It is, however, quite fun to use 🙂
