Nimbus

What if weather had personality? The initial hypothesis emerged from noticing that weather apps seem designed for meteorological stations, not for people.

Defined the first personality modes for interpreting the same weather. Geek. Philosophical. Night owl. Gamer. Team Cold. Team Heat. Same temperature. Different narratives.

First visual explorations for the mascot. Discarded overly cartoonish approaches. Looking for something that conveys character without feeling childish.

Initial integration with OpenWeather. Dynamic message generation based on temperature, weather condition, and time of day.

First functional MVP deployed. Nimbus can now fetch the weather, interpret the context, and generate personalized responses.

Firebase Auth. Google login. Session persistence. The goal was not access control — it was preserving preferences and personality across devices.

The session was lost on page reload. The problem was not Firebase. It was the order in which the auth listener was updating the initial state.
