Weather App updated with subtle color refinements
Gradually, as seen in the latest months, Ubuntu converged is gaining a massive amount of software, software including under-the-hood services, modern Unity 8, Ubuntu developers-only applications, as well as the core applications, latter being produced by a meaningful collaboration between talented third-party developers, Ubuntu developers and Ubuntu designers.
During the latest weeks, Weather App has seen numerous optimizations and refinements, polish effort aimed at delivering a stable version of the weather application in the near future.
Weather App comes with support for multiple cities and a rich range of weather values, values (like for example, Celsius degrees) expressed in relation to predefined colors; for example, the value 20 degrees Celsius is rendered with an orange-to-red color, while lower temperatures are expressed with green-to-gray color tones.
Weather App has been updated to a minor-yet-interesting release, bringing, along with bug fixes, more dark colors for the vividly-rendered color tones on its views.
Meaning, high temperatures (such as 20 degrees Celsius) retain the same orange-to-red color, yet, their color vitality has been decreased by eliminating percentages of light, while adding subtle-yet-noticeable dark tones.
The result: the weather's colors are now more pleasant to the eye featuring more calm colors.
