🌦️ Weatherdo — Weather Forecast Web Application

Weatherdo is a dynamic and fully responsive weather forecasting web application built using Vanilla JavaScript, HTML5, and CSS3.
It delivers real-time weather forecasts, air pollution indices, breaking news updates, and interactive maps, all while maintaining high accessibility standards through integrated text-to-speech narration.
This project was developed without using any frameworks or libraries like React.js, Bootstrap, or TailwindCSS, to strengthen my core web development skills.
