MVP

• As a user I want to see weather forecast at my current location
• As a user I want to see weather forecast at other locations by city name
• As a user I want to see weather forecast of my favorite places

Stretch

• As a user I want to easily view on mobile device (iphone 6 optimized)
• As a user I want to easily and simply organize weather imformation (dashboard widget style)
• As a user I want to share weather at my current location to social media (priority twitter, facebook)
• P2P weather information sharing. Hopefully location based for better experience (Peerjs?)
• Decentralized bootstraping (node with latest weather becomes master-peer) http://ns2.thinkmind.org/download.php?articleid=web_2017_1_30_40029

Basic workflow

1. app loads
2. get user location and populate current location and weather
3. if cannot get user location, show the first location in user's list
