## What it is
weathr is a terminal-based weather application written in Rust that displays real-time weather data from Open-Meteo as animated ASCII scenes. It features animated rain, snow, thunderstorms, day/night cycles, flying airplanes, and automatic location detection.

## Use cases
- check the weather from my terminal
- show animated ascii rain and snow in the terminal
- get current weather with auto location detection in a tui
- display a day/night weather scene in my shell
- run a terminal weather dashboard with thunderstorm animations

## When to choose
- you want a visually rich, animated weather display inside your terminal
- you prefer lightweight CLI tools over GUI weather apps
- you want a privacy-friendly weather tool using Open-Meteo without API keys
- you use Linux, macOS, Windows, or BSD and want easy installation via cargo, brew, winget, or AUR

## When to avoid
- you need detailed forecasts, radar maps, or severe weather alerts
- you want a graphical weather app with charts and maps
- your terminal does not support the rendering needed for ASCII animations

## Facets
- artifact type: cli-tool
- maturity: active
- function: cli, terminal-ui, animation, data-visualization
