Seems to be happening more and more often with people.

I spent the last few months learning how to code and making weatherTunes. Its an app that takes your surrounding weather conditions and makes a playlist that fits the current mood created by the weather. Check it out, and if your up to it, would love to get feedback!

I'm sorry but I have to mention it.

The scroll jacking on your webpage is only slightly less annoying than most.

Cool app!

App looks very cool, how did you learn how to code?

Living in Upstate New York, this app is sure to make me incredibly depressed.

Sarcasm aside, what's to prevent a resident of, say, California from hearing the same stuff every single day?

Honestly this does look really cool. Will definitely look into it.

Some people listen to music to match their mood while others listen to it to change their mood. Maybe have an option to invert the playlist choices?

That was definitely in the plans when I started doing this, but as it started to take a while to complete, I dropped that feature for now. If there's any traction with the app, I still plan on adding that.

I also would like to have a more robust weather forecast, the ability to choose multiple genres, and to have the option to either use the default youtube video player, or choose to use apple music as the source if you subscribe to it.

Thank you for the feedback!

Hey that's pretty cool. I just did a similar thing, I started about 3 weeks ago on Donors Choose app https://appsto.re/us/JVmbab.i it's not for profit or anything , just figured I would do a small side project in the evening while I hang out with my kids over summer break

I'm doing about 10 hours a week on it, I figured I would 'soft launch' it rough instead and polish it up as I get closer to the start of school year .
