In this tutorial, we will be embedding a weather widget to an update and post it to the Today Page! This is a great option if you do not love the default weather app in LENS.
To add windy.com as a widget, we need to embed an iframe into the code. Let's break down the two steps: 1) compile code from windy.com and 2) create the update in LENS
1) Compile Code from Windy.com
navigate to windy.com
click
windowclick
embed widget on page
select desired view on the map (click and drag and to move the map)
configure your map
click "
copy to clip board" to copy the code to your clipboard
2) Create the Update in LENS
start by creating a new update (make sure it is pinned ✅ )
select the
Three Dotsicon (more misc)select the
Code Viewiconpaste in the code (see below)
click the
Code Viewicon again to load the codeclick
SAVE!
Example of code text:
<iframe width="650" height="450" src="https://embed.windy.com/embed2.html?lat=27.886&lon=-82.114&detailLat=27.886&detailLon=-82.114&width=650&height=450&zoom=6&level=surface&overlay=wind&product=ecmwf&menu=&message=&marker=&calendar=now&pressure=&type=map&location=coordinates&detail=&metricWind=default&metricTemp=default&radarRange=-1" frameborder="0"></iframe>
