Hey there,

I had the opportunity to launch a 90s retro inspired weather web app for The Weather Channel last week called RetroCast Now. I saw a post about it here so figured I'd come share some of the background and a bit of the technical approach.

Here's a little behind the scenes on how the project came to be:

(Spoiler: I slid into The Weather Channel CEO's DMs)

And here's a technical and design breakdown of how I approached it:

Thanks for supporting the app!

Happy to answer any questions.

Cheers,

Lee
