A simple homepage similar to momentum that works with Safari (and all other browsers) while gaining more control than momentum offers. I use this as my homepage for new windows and tabs in the browser.
I made this while bored one day during the Coronavirus quarantine.
Here is the link:
https://www.spencerperkins.me/projects/dashboard/dashboard.html?name=Spencer&lat=10&long=10
By replacing Spencer in the html name argument you can make this homepage your own!
You can also have the weather customized to use, without needing to turn on location services by passing in your approximate latitude and longitude in the url
Features - I wanted to keep things as clean and minimalistic as possible:
- Time
- Date
- Search Bar (DuckDuckGo)
- Welcome message customized to the time of day
- Current weather information
- Tracking the current Ethereum gas price
How it works - overall it is very simple and uses the following:
- HTML
- CSS
- JavaScript
- Unsplash image API: used to get a new background image every time it is opened
- openweathermap API: used to get the weather data for the users current location
- ethgasstation API: used to get the Ethereum gas price
