Hi, Great work here, But I would like to enjoy it elsewhere than USA, is there a simple solution, or do you need to make an international version? Or maybe didn't I understand how to set this up..

Thanks

Not right now, unfortunately. NOAA's National Weather Service was the only option I could find that was free and had no limits on usage.

You could use openweathermap.org which does have limits on the free-tier, but with 60/min or 1,000,000/month no normal user should hit that limit. Not like weather is changing THAT much in 2.5 seconds in most places.

rePaper (https://github.com/rocksdanister/rePaper/) uses it for their wallpaper-weather effects, which I wanted to combine it with. Sadly, I do not know Pascal or Unity so I'm out of my water here to contribute, but maybe this helps.
