Building a Weather App with React Native | DEVember Day 8

This is DAY 8 of #DEVember and today today's session is all about combining functionality with aesthetics as we build a Weather App using React Native. We'll walk through the process of fetching real-time data from a public API and displaying it in a user-friendly interface. This is an excellent opportunity for developers who want to enhance their API integration skills and develop an app that is both informative and visually appealing.
