Ah I see you just beat me to what I was saying :lol:
JavaScript, as a client-side system, is indeed quite difficult to actually make people purchase. Well, technically it is impossible, but there are ways to somewhat work around that. That being said, I am a believer of the open source model, and that isn’t a road I’d want to go down in the first place!
In that regard, donationware, as you put it, might be a something I could get behind! 
the first step is to get to see if others can easily configure/setup it up OK
I could be your first guinea pig 
I can’t think of anyone better!
What’s the easiest way we can discuss how to go about this?
Email?
Works fine for me. I’ll get in touch
I would also be willing to take a swing at it on my website. I have two different stations being fed by WD I could test it with.
That would be great
There are a couple things I need to do before it’s ready to be put on different sites, but I may get in touch with you once that has been worked through!
I would be a guinea pig too. I have unlimited space on the school server.
Hi,
good job, it looks great. The only problem was that on my lower-end PC after a few seconds it just froze. Tried to refresh the page with same result. Probably too much JS for my laptop
Hmmm, that’s not good to hear! 8O I had hoped that as it functioned on phones it would also do the same for lower end devices… Maybe it’s taking up too much memory.
I will have to look in to it. Thank you for the feedback!
It works perfectly for me on a low-end Tablet with Intel Atom CPU and 4GB of RAM.
You’ve done an excellent job of this Yerren - actually I think it’s better than the original WDL. For one thing the axes of the graphs are all labelled properly which they sometimes weren’t in WDL and it seems to be more consistent at recording each and every data point. The overall presentation is tidier too; especially in the records pages.
I look forward to giving this a try on my website when you are ready for others to use it.
FYI, when I loaded your page I didn’t see much of a memory usage increase, but it uses 30% more CPU on my system.
I’m really appreciate the kind words!
I tried to make it a bit cleaner, but I wasn’t sure if reflected as such in the end result, so I’m glad to hear you think so!
That is interesting. I think the biggest issue at this stage is probably that the code is pretty unoptimized, so hopefully I will be able to improve on this in the future.
But at least it does run, most of the time :lol:
have you thought about making the windspeed a gauge instead of how you have it now?
I considered it, as it is the way the original WDL does it, but I personally found bars to be more indicative, as well as making the wind direction stand out.
However, this was done before the humidity gauge, which to me does look a bit more the style of speed (think: a speedometer), so I can see how that would work.
At this stage, considering the time it takes to make another gauge, it is probably not worth it while there are still other features I am trying to implement.
Maybe one for the future, if others also feel it more appropriate?
Good work =D>
I would vote for a speedo type gauge for wind
Thanks for the feedback!
Yep, me too, but not a show stopper
Speedometer-----not speedo. That may be a little weird.
