A simple vue dashboard app that renders the snow report for US mountain resorts on the Epic Pass.
Mountain names and locations are pulled from epicpass.com, via a serverless webscraper and custom REST API, which is maintained in a separate repositiory.
The mountain locations are used to retreive snow report data from the World Weather Online Ski and Mountain Weather API, based on user input. While the ski weather API documentation indicates that 7 day ski weather forecast should be available, that feature doesn't seem to be working currently. The application has been structured in a way to render future weather forecast, based on the data structure outline in the API, though the results are currently only rendering the snow report for the current day.
An API key for the World Weather Online API needs to be defined in .env.local for local development.
The app uses session storage to cache the resort lists after the initial call to the custom REST API. This enables users to execute multiple search queries in one browser session without having to wait for the resort list to populate each time.
The app is deployed on Netlfy and can be accessed here.
