Notes

• There are some PBIs (Product-Backlog-Item) in the Backlog section that could be implemented in the future
• There are some TODOs in the project source code. Most of them are additional features that could be implemented in the future
• The current weather is shown in the main screen for specific city code. But its better to show it using user's location.
• Some of objects in observation field in the api/estonia/current/ endpoint, have an empty string for their wmocode. So we can't make an API call for this places. instead we can show details from previous screen.
• The API doesn't provide any image url for the place. So it's better to use some random images from network to have a better UX.
• Some place ids in the estonia/current response, could not be found in world/locations/{id}. So you might see handled error of Network Error: Not Found
