SPECTRA / Weather

Minimal weather app with real-time atmospheric art

What it does

SPECTRA strips away the visual noise of conventional weather apps and renders atmospheric conditions as real-time generative art. Six dynamic modes: beam (clear), precipitation lines (rain), noise field (clouds), lightning (storms), vortex (wind), particles (snow). Each visualization responds to live weather data—intensity, density, motion. The clear-sky beam tracks actual solar position, widening at noon and narrowing at dusk. No icons. No charts. Just atmospheric presence.

    The current sky at your approximate location, as a CSS gradient2025 · sky.dlazaro.ca · ▲788

    For HTML Day 2025 [1], I made a web service that displays the current sky at your approximate location as a CSS gradient. Colours are simulated on-demand using atmospheric absorption and scattering coefficients. Updates every minute, without the use of client-side JavaScript. Source code and additional information is available on GitHub: https://github.com/dnlzro/horizon [1] https://html.energy/html-day/2025/index.html
