I shared this a little while ago. Since then, I've implemented some feature requests and added a small weather widget. There are also static pages for major cities if you prefer not to use the location-based version. e.g., https://sunrisewhen.com/new-york I know most phones and browsers already provide this kind of info, but it's a fun little project I enjoy keeping alive. cheers
