Prototype UI

[ke4roh]

We created some UI prototypes at Citycamp.

Color gradient to show temperature can give us a pattern to follow, though we will need to apply a different range than they have, perhaps 130F to -20F, evenly distributed across that range. Easy enough. Let's make sure we have icons for the common weather days.

Things the UI should do:

• Display ambient/watch/warning
• Mute/un-mute radio
• Display latest and/or active messages here or elsewhere
• Offer some configuration for location
• Self-test (see issue 18)

@bfahr gives "An interesting example of a weather summary from Gnome Openweather Extension https://fedoramagazine.org/weather-updates-openweather-gnome-shell-extension/ Might be another good option for display data source."

See also some first drafts on slides 11, 12 & 13. These include background colors that indicate the high temp for the day, internet and radio status indicators, and an icon indicating the general weather, along with a numerical display for temperature. We might want to show high/low & now, and we might want the color of the display to reflect now. Time is nice to show. @Homa mentioned moon phases, too.
