Site Code
This web site uses the Sofaskin template for WeeWX, designed by Sven at Neoground. Sofaskin is a custom skin modelled from Google's Material Design that uses
Bootstrap to display the weather data. I made a variety of functional changes to the original Sofaskin code which is available on GitHub. My Sofaskin-CW9009 skin needs an additional python script, historygenerator.py,
which was adapted from another skin, Dajda.net, to generate the history tables. I have also incorporated some changes in this template by Bjorn Torkelsson.
The code for the web page skins and python script is available from the web sites below.
