**Important Note on Base Project Integration:**
As this project is initiated from a cloned base project, some directories (e.g., `.sureai/` or `frontend/`) may already exist, possibly containing initial files. This documentation outlines the *complete* and *desired* structure. The io8Directory Structure Agent will only ensure the presence of directories and files specified here that are currently missing, respecting and preserving any existing content from the base project. No predefined documents (e.g., `analysis_document.md`, `requirements_document.md`) will be created by this agent; they will be populated by their respective specialized agents later in the workflow.

* Implement client-side logic for making HTTP requests to the `backend/` API.
* Design and apply styles consistent with Angular Clarity, possibly extending `styles.scss` or component-specific `.scss` files.
* Implement features for location search and display updates.
* Add loading states, error messages, and basic input validation to enhance UX.
* Implement unit tests for frontend components.
* Document component usage and structure (e.g., in `developer_*.md`).
**Phase 4: DevOps, Containerization & Deployment Preparation (io8DevOps Lead)**
* **Duration:** 1-2 weeks
* **Objective:** Prepare the application for deployment by containerizing services and defining deployment configurations.
* **Tasks:**
1. **io8DevOps:**
* Create `Dockerfile.backend` to containerize the backend service.
* Create `Dockerfile.frontend` to containerize the Angular application (e.g., build and serve with Nginx).
* Develop `docker-compose.yml` to define and orchestrate both backend and frontend services for local development and testing.
* Configure `deployment_config.yml` with environment-specific variables and deployment parameters for a target cloud platform.
* Document local setup and deployment procedures (e.g., in `devops_*.md`).
**Cross-Cutting Activities (io8PM & io8ScrumMaster throughout all phases):**
* **io8PM:** Oversee overall project health, manage risks (e.g., API rate limits, external API changes), ensure alignment with `prd_document.md` (populated by PM).
* **io8ScrumMaster:** Facilitate agile ceremonies, manage `tasks_list.md` and `sprint_plan.md`, remove impediments, and ensure effective team collaboration.
* **Documentation:** Ensure all agent-specific output files (`.analyst_*.md`, `.architect_*.md`, etc.) and visible documents (`analysis_document.md`, `architecture_document.md`, etc.) are updated and maintained.
* **Testing:** Continuous testing throughout development; unit, integration, and potentially end-to-end tests.

# io8 Project Builder Plan: weather_app_20250926_094440
This document outlines the scaffolding plan for the `weather_app_20250926_094440` project, including backend and frontend structures, directory strategy, build tools, and pre-developer checks.
## High-Level Scaffolding Plan
### Backend (Spring Boot)
- **Core Structure**: Standard Spring Boot application with `src/main/java` for source code, `src/main/resources` for configurations, and `src/test/java` for tests.
- **API Endpoints**: RESTful APIs will be generated based on the `WeatherDisplay` wireframe, including endpoints for retrieving weather data.
- **Database Integration**: JPA/Hibernate for MySQL integration, with entities corresponding to the wireframe fields.
- **Service Layer**: Business logic for weather data retrieval and processing.
- **Controller Layer**: Exposing REST endpoints for the frontend.
### Frontend (Angular Clarity)
- **Core Structure**: Standard Angular application with `src/app` for components, services, and modules.
- **Components**: A main `WeatherDisplay` component to render weather information.
- **Services**: Angular services to interact with the Spring Boot backend APIs.
- **Routing**: Basic routing for the application.
- **UI Framework**: Clarity Design System for consistent and accessible UI components.
## Directory and File Scaffolding Strategy
The project will follow a standard structure generated by io8 MCP and Angular CLI/Spring Initializr.
- `/tmp/bmad_output/weather_app_20250926_094440/` (Project Root)

- **Frontend**: Angular CLI (`package.json`) will be used for building and serving the Angular application.
- `npm install`: To install frontend dependencies.
- `ng serve`: To serve the Angular application locally.
- `ng build`: To build the application for production.
## Pre-Developer Checks
Before further development, the following checks should be performed:
1. **Verify Project Structure**: Ensure that the backend (Spring Boot) and frontend (Angular Clarity) project directories and their basic file structures are correctly generated after the `git pull`.
2. **Dependency Check**: Confirm that `pom.xml` (backend) and `package.json` (frontend) contain the necessary dependencies for Spring Boot, MySQL, Angular, and Clarity.
3. **Basic Build Verification**:
- Attempt to build the backend: `cd weather_app_20250926_094440-b && mvn clean install`.
- Attempt to install frontend dependencies: `cd weather_app_20250926_094440-f && npm install`.
4. **Configuration Files**: Check `application.properties` for correct database connection settings.
5. **Wireframe Integration**: Verify that the generated backend code includes basic structures (e.g., entity, controller, service) corresponding to the `WeatherDisplay` wireframe.

## DIRECTORY STRUCTURE UPDATE - 2025-09-26 09:53:23
## Directory Structure Documentation for 'Weather App' Project (Base Project)
This section documents the expected and existing directory structure for the 'Weather App' project, built upon a cloned base project. As per the `io8Directory Structure Agent` principles for base projects, no new directories or files are created; this is purely a documentation exercise to guide subsequent agents.
### Core Project Structure (Documented from Mandatory Template):
```

```
### 'Weather App' Specific Structure Considerations (Documentation for Future Implementation):
Based on the 'weather app' prompt, the following outlines how specific components will reside within the documented structure. This serves as a blueprint for subsequent agents to follow when building the application.
1. **Backend (`backend/`):**
* **Purpose:** Houses the core logic for fetching, processing, and serving weather data to the frontend.
* **Expected Content:**
* `backend/src/controllers/weather_controller.py` (or similar): API endpoints for accessing weather data (e.g., `/api/current-weather`, `/api/forecast`).
* `backend/src/services/weather_api_integrator.py` (or similar): Logic to interact with external weather APIs (e.g., OpenWeatherMap, AccuWeather), including API key management and error handling.
* `backend/src/models/weather_data.py` (or similar): Data structures and validation for incoming and outgoing weather information.
* `backend/src/utils/cache_manager.py`: Optional module for caching weather data responses to reduce external API calls and improve performance.
* `backend/config/`: Configuration files specific to the backend environment and external service credentials.
2. **Frontend (`frontend/`):**
* **Purpose:** Provides the user interface for displaying real-time and forecasted weather information.
* **Expected Content:**
* `frontend/src/components/WeatherCard.js` (or similar): Reusable UI component to display current weather details for a specific location.
* `frontend/src/components/ForecastList.js`: Component for presenting multi-day weather forecasts.
* `frontend/src/components/SearchBar.js`: User input component for searching weather by city or location.
* `frontend/src/pages/HomePage.js` (or similar): The main page component that orchestrates other weather-related components.
* `frontend/src/api/weatherApiClient.js`: Client-side logic for making requests to the `backend/` API.
* `frontend/src/assets/icons/`: Directory for weather condition icons (e.g., sunny, cloudy, rainy).
* `frontend/src/styles/`: Global or component-specific CSS/SCSS files for styling the weather app.
* `frontend/src/utils/`: Helper functions for date formatting, unit conversion, etc.
3. **Root-level Configuration:**
* `Dockerfile.backend`: Will define the environment and dependencies for containerizing the backend weather API service.
* `Dockerfile.frontend`: Will define the environment and build process for containerizing the frontend application (e.g., using Nginx to serve static files).
* `docker-compose.yml`: Will orchestrate the multi-container setup, linking the backend and frontend services, defining network configurations, and potentially including other services like a local database if historical data storage is implemented.
* `deployment_config.yml`: Will contain environment-specific deployment settings for cloud platforms, including environment variables for API keys (e.g., `WEATHER_API_KEY`), scaling parameters, and domain configurations.
4. **Documentation (`cloned base project/.sureai/`):**
* `analysis_document.md`: Will detail user stories for weather app functionalities (e.g., 'As a user, I want to see the current temperature for my location'), functional and non-functional requirements.
* `requirements_document.md`: Comprehensive list of all business and technical requirements, including data sources and update frequencies.
* `architecture_document.md`: Will outline the system architecture for the weather app, including choice of external weather APIs, data flow diagrams (frontend -> backend -> external API), and proposed technology stack.
* `uploads/`: May contain UI/UX mockups, wireframes of the weather app interface, or example JSON responses from weather APIs.

**Important Note on Base Project Integration:**
As this project is initiated from a cloned base project, some directories (e.g., `.sureai/` or `frontend/`) may already exist, possibly containing initial files. This documentation outlines the *complete* and *desired* structure. The io8Directory Structure Agent will only ensure the presence of directories and files specified here that are currently missing, respecting and preserving any existing content from the base project. No predefined documents (e.g., `analysis_document.md`, `requirements_document.md`) will be created by this agent; they will be populated by their respective specialized agents later in the workflow.

## CODER BREAKDOWN UPDATE - 2025-09-26 09:55:54
### Project Breakdown: Weather App (io8codermaster)
**Date:** 2025-09-26 09:44:40
**Project Goal:** Develop a functional, user-friendly weather application leveraging an existing Angular Clarity boilerplate, capable of displaying current weather conditions and multi-day forecasts for user-specified locations.
**Key Modules & Components:**
1. **External Weather API Integration (Backend Focus):**
* Identify, select, and integrate with a reliable third-party weather data provider (e.g., OpenWeatherMap, WeatherAPI.com).
* Handle API key management and secure access.
* Implement data fetching, parsing, and basic error handling for API responses.
2. **Backend Service (Data Proxy & Business Logic):**
* Create a dedicated backend service (`backend/` directory) to act as a proxy between the frontend and external weather APIs.
* Develop API endpoints for:
* Fetching current weather data by location (city name, coordinates).
* Fetching multi-day weather forecasts by location.
* Implement optional caching strategies to optimize API calls and performance.
* Ensure data consistency and transformation for frontend consumption.
3. **Frontend User Interface (Angular Clarity Boilerplate - `src/app/`):**
* **Core Display Components:**
* `WeatherCardComponent` (in `src/app/shared/`): Displays current weather details (temperature, conditions, humidity, wind speed) for a selected location.
* `ForecastListComponent` (in `src/app/shared/`): Presents a list of daily or hourly forecasts.
* **User Interaction Components:**
* `SearchBarComponent` (in `src/app/shared/`): Allows users to input city names or utilize geolocation to search for weather.
* Location selector/management.
* **Main Application Pages/Views:**
* `HomePageComponent` (in `src/app/` or new feature module): Orchestrates the weather display and search functionality.
* **Styling & Theming:** Apply Clarity design system for a consistent look and feel.
4. **Data Flow & State Management:**
* Define clear communication patterns between frontend and backend.
* Determine state management strategy within Angular for weather data.
5. **Deployment & Infrastructure (io8DevOps Focus):**
* Containerize both frontend and backend services using Docker (`Dockerfile.frontend`, `Dockerfile.backend`).
* Orchestrate multi-container setup using Docker Compose (`docker-compose.yml`).
* Define deployment configurations (`deployment_config.yml`) for target environments (e.g., production, staging).
**Milestones:**
* **M1: Core Current Weather Display (MVP):** Successfully fetch and display current weather for a hardcoded location on the frontend, integrating with the backend proxy.
* **M2: Location Search & Dynamic Current Weather:** Implement user input for location search and dynamically update current weather display. Integrate geolocation option.
* **M3: Multi-Day Forecast Display:** Extend the backend to fetch forecast data and implement frontend components to display this information.
* **M4: UI Refinements & Error Handling:** Enhance user experience, add loading indicators, implement robust error handling for API failures and invalid inputs.
* **M5: Containerization & Local Orchestration:** Backend and frontend services are containerized and runnable via Docker Compose locally.
* **M6: Deployment Readiness:** All necessary configurations and scripts are in place for cloud deployment.
**Key Constraints & Considerations:**
* **Base Project Adherence:** Strictly adhere to the append-only and preserve-existing-content rules for the `.sureai` directory and overall base project structure.
* **Existing Framework:** Frontend development must utilize the existing Angular Clarity boilerplate.
* **API Limits:** Be mindful of external weather API rate limits and consider caching strategies.
* **Security:** API keys and sensitive information must be handled securely (e.g., environment variables, backend proxy).
* **Performance:** Optimize data fetching and frontend rendering for a responsive user experience.
* **Scalability:** Design for potential future scaling of backend services.
* **Unit & Integration Testing:** Implement tests for both frontend and backend components to ensure reliability.
* **Documentation:** Maintain updated documentation within the `.sureai/` directory as per io8 workflow.

## System Overview - Weather Application Extension
Building upon the existing Angular Clarity Boilerplate, this system extends its capabilities to a fully functional Weather Application. The architecture comprises a responsive Angular frontend, a dedicated backend proxy service, and integration with an external third-party weather API. The frontend, built with Angular and Clarity Design System, handles user interactions, displays current weather and multi-day forecasts. The backend proxy, developed with Node.js and Express.js, acts as a secure intermediary, managing API keys, abstracting external API complexities, and enabling data caching to enhance performance and scalability. This setup ensures a robust, secure, and performant weather information delivery system.
## Architecture Pattern - Client-Server with API Gateway/Proxy
To fulfill the requirements of integrating an external API securely and efficiently, the system adopts a **Client-Server Architecture** with a prominent **API Gateway/Proxy Pattern** for the backend:
* **Frontend (Client):** The Angular application serves as the client, responsible for the user interface, presentation logic, and making API requests to the backend proxy.
* **Backend Proxy (API Gateway):** A dedicated lightweight service (Node.js/Express.js) sits between the frontend and the external weather API. Its responsibilities include:
* **Security:** Protecting the external weather API key by not exposing it to the client-side.
* **Abstraction:** Providing a single, consistent set of API endpoints to the frontend, decoupling it from the external API's specifics.
* **Data Transformation:** Mapping external API responses to a standardized format consumed by the frontend.
* **Performance:** Implementing caching mechanisms (e.g., Redis) to store frequently requested weather data, reducing redundant external API calls and improving response times (NFR-001, NFR-005).
* **Rate Limiting:** Managing requests to the external API to comply with usage policies (Business Rule 2).
* **Error Handling:** Centralized handling of external API failures before responses are sent to the frontend (FR-007, NFR-004).
* **External Weather API:** A third-party service (e.g., OpenWeatherMap) provides the raw weather data.
This pattern enhances security, simplifies frontend development by providing a consistent interface, and improves scalability and reliability through caching and centralized error management.
## Component Design - Weather Application
### Frontend (Angular) Components:
Building upon the existing modular structure (FR-002, FR-003, FR-004):
* **`AppModule`**: The root module, handling application bootstrapping and core layout. Imports `CoreModule` and `SharedModule`.
* **`CoreModule`**: Contains singleton services and `HttpInterceptors` for global concerns.
* `WeatherApiService`: Handles all HTTP requests to the backend proxy for weather data.
* `UnitConversionService`: Manages temperature unit conversion logic and state (Celsius/Fahrenheit).
* `ErrorHandlerInterceptor`: Intercepts and processes global API errors, displaying user-friendly messages (FR-007).
* `GeolocationService`: Wraps browser's Geolocation API to fetch user's location (FR-003).
* **`SharedModule`**: Contains reusable UI components, directives, and pipes.
* `LoadingSpinnerComponent`: Generic spinner for data loading states (FR-006).
* `ErrorAlertComponent`: Displays general error messages (FR-007).
* `TemperatureUnitToggleComponent`: A UI component (e.g., toggle switch) for switching between Celsius/Fahrenheit (FR-005).
* **`WeatherFeatureModule` (Lazy-Loaded):** Encapsulates all weather-specific functionality.
* `WeatherPageComponent`: Main smart component orchestrating data flow, integrating search, current weather, and forecast displays.
* `LocationSearchComponent`: Contains the search input field and trigger for geolocation (FR-002, FR-003).
* `CurrentWeatherCardComponent`: Displays current weather conditions (temperature, description, humidity, wind) for a location (FR-001). Utilizes Clarity Card component.
* `ForecastListComponent`: Displays the multi-day forecast (FR-004). May use Clarity List or multiple Clarity Card components.
* `WeatherIconComponent`: Displays appropriate weather icons based on conditions.
### Backend (Node.js/Express.js Proxy) Components:
* **`server.js` (or `app.ts`):** Main entry point, sets up Express app, middleware (CORS, body-parser), and registers routes.
* **`routes/weatherRoutes.js`:** Defines API endpoints for weather data (`/api/current-weather`, `/api/forecast`) and maps them to controller functions (FR-008).
* **`controllers/weatherController.js`:** Handles incoming requests, validates input, interacts with `WeatherService`, and sends responses.
* **`services/weatherService.js`:** Core business logic.
* Calls the `ExternalWeatherApiClient`.
* Performs data transformation/normalization from external API response to internal models.
* Interacts with `CacheService` for data caching (NFR-005, Business Rule 3).
* **`clients/externalWeatherApiClient.js`:** Specific client for making HTTP requests to the chosen external weather API (e.g., using `axios` or `node-fetch`). Handles API key injection from environment variables (NFR-002, Business Rule 1).
* **`services/cacheService.js`:** Abstracts Redis interactions for caching weather data.
* **`config/env.js`:** Manages environment variables for API keys and other configurations.
## Data Architecture
### Frontend (TypeScript Interfaces):
Data models on the frontend will be defined using TypeScript interfaces to ensure strong typing and data consistency, aligning with the `requirements_document.md` Data Requirements section.
```typescript
// src/app/shared/models/location.model.ts
export interface Location {
name: string;
country?: string; // Optional, as some APIs might only provide city
latitude: number;
longitude: number;
}
// src/app/shared/models/current-weather.model.ts
export interface CurrentWeather {
location: Location;
temperature: number;
unit: 'Celsius' | 'Fahrenheit';
condition: string;
description: string;
icon: string; // URL or icon code
humidity: number;
windSpeed: number;
timestamp: number; // Unix timestamp or ISO string
}
// src/app/shared/models/forecast-day.model.ts
export interface ForecastDay {
location: Location;
date: string; // ISO date string, e.g., 'YYYY-MM-DD'
tempHigh: number;
tempLow: number;
unit: 'Celsius' | 'Fahrenheit';
condition: string;
description: string;
icon: string; // URL or icon code
}
```
### Backend (Data Transformation & Caching):
* The backend proxy will receive raw data from the external weather API and transform it into the `CurrentWeather` and `ForecastDay` models defined above before sending it to the frontend.
* **Caching Database (Redis):** Redis will be used as an in-memory data store for caching weather data (NFR-005, Business Rule 3). Cache keys will be constructed based on location (city, latitude/longitude) and unit, with a configurable time-to-live (TTL) to ensure data freshness while reducing external API calls. For example, a key could be `weather:london:celsius:current` or `weather:london:fahrenheit:forecast`.
## API Design - Backend Proxy Endpoints
The backend proxy will expose RESTful API endpoints, allowing the frontend to fetch weather data. All responses will be in JSON format.
* **Base URL:** `/api`
* **Endpoints (FR-008):**
* `GET /api/current-weather?location={city}[&lat={latitude}&lon={longitude}][&units={metric|imperial}]`
* **Description:** Retrieves current weather conditions for a specified location (city name or geographic coordinates).
* **Parameters:**
* `location`: (Required if `lat` and `lon` are not provided) City name (e.g., `London`).
* `lat`: (Optional, with `lon`) Latitude for geolocation search.
* `lon`: (Optional, with `lat`) Longitude for geolocation search.
* `units`: (Optional) `metric` (Celsius, m/s) or `imperial` (Fahrenheit, miles/hour). Defaults to `metric`.
* **Response (200 OK):** `CurrentWeather` object.
* **Error Responses:** 400 Bad Request (invalid parameters), 404 Not Found (location not found), 500 Internal Server Error (external API issue).
* `GET /api/forecast?location={city}[&lat={latitude}&lon={longitude}][&units={metric|imperial}]`
* **Description:** Retrieves a multi-day weather forecast for a specified location.
* **Parameters:** Same as `/api/current-weather`.
* **Response (200 OK):** An array of `ForecastDay` objects.
* **Error Responses:** Same as `/api/current-weather`.
## Security Architecture
* **API Key Management (NFR-002, Business Rule 1):** External weather API keys will be stored as environment variables on the backend server and never committed to version control or exposed to the client-side. The backend proxy will inject these keys into its requests to the external API.
* **HTTPS (NFR-002):** All communication between the Angular frontend and the Node.js/Express.js backend proxy, and ideally between the proxy and the external weather API (if supported), will use HTTPS/SSL to ensure data encryption in transit.
* **Input Validation (Business Rule 4, NFR-002):** Both frontend and backend will perform input validation on user-provided location data to prevent injection attacks or invalid requests. The backend proxy will sanitize and validate all parameters before forwarding them to the external weather API.
* **CORS Configuration:** The Express.js backend will be configured with appropriate Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) headers to allow requests only from the Angular frontend's domain, preventing unauthorized cross-origin requests.
* **Error Handling:** The backend will avoid exposing sensitive internal error details to the client. Generic, user-friendly error messages will be returned instead (FR-007).
## Scalability Considerations
* **Frontend Scalability:** Angular's default build optimizations (tree-shaking, minification, lazy loading of feature modules) ensure efficient client-side performance. The modular architecture facilitates independent development and scaling of features.
* **Backend Scalability (NFR-005):**
* **Containerization (Docker):** The Express.js backend service will be containerized using Docker, allowing for easy deployment and orchestration in cloud environments (e.g., Kubernetes, AWS Fargate, Azure Container Instances).
* **Horizontal Scaling:** The stateless nature of the backend proxy (apart from caching) enables horizontal scaling, where multiple instances can run concurrently behind a load balancer to handle increased request load.
* **Caching (Redis):** Implementing Redis caching significantly reduces the load on the external weather API and improves response times, especially for frequently requested locations, thereby enhancing throughput and scalability (NFR-001, NFR-005, Business Rule 3).
* **External API Rate Limiting (Business Rule 2):** The backend proxy will implement mechanisms to respect the external weather API's rate limits, potentially queueing or throttling requests to avoid service interruptions.
* **Reliability (NFR-004):** The backend will incorporate retry mechanisms with exponential backoff for transient failures when communicating with the external weather API. Circuit breakers can be considered for more resilient handling of persistent external API outages.

Cache keys will be constructed based on location (city, latitude/longitude) and unit, with a configurable time-to-live (TTL) to ensure data freshness while reducing external API calls. For example, a key could be `weather:london:celsius:current` or `weather:london:fahrenheit:forecast`.
## API Design - Backend Proxy Endpoints
The backend proxy will expose RESTful API endpoints, allowing the frontend to fetch weather data. All responses will be in JSON format.
* **Base URL:** `/api`
* **Endpoints (FR-008):**
* `GET /api/current-weather?location={city}[&lat={latitude}&lon={longitude}][&units={metric|imperial}]`
* **Description:** Retrieves current weather conditions for a specified location (city name or geographic coordinates).
* **Parameters:**
* `location`: (Required if `lat` and `lon` are not provided) City name (e.g., `London`).
* `lat`: (Optional, with `lon`) Latitude for geolocation search.
* `lon`: (Optional, with `lat`) Longitude for geolocation search.
* `units`: (Optional) `metric` (Celsius, m/s) or `imperial` (Fahrenheit, miles/hour). Defaults to `metric`.
* **Response (200 OK):** `CurrentWeather` object.
* **Error Responses:** 400 Bad Request (invalid parameters), 404 Not Found (location not found), 500 Internal Server Error (external API issue).
* `GET /api/forecast?location={city}[&lat={latitude}&lon={longitude}][&units={metric|imperial}]`
* **Description:** Retrieves a multi-day weather forecast for a specified location.
* **Parameters:** Same as `/api/current-weather`.
* **Response (200 OK):** An array of `ForecastDay` objects.
* **Error Responses:** Same as `/api/current-weather`.
## Security Architecture
* **API Key Management (NFR-002, Business Rule 1):** External weather API keys will be stored as environment variables on the backend server and never committed to version control or exposed to the client-side. The backend proxy will inject these keys into its requests to the external API.
* **HTTPS (NFR-002):** All communication between the Angular frontend and the Node.js/Express.js backend proxy, and ideally between the proxy and the external weather API (if supported), will use HTTPS/SSL to ensure data encryption in transit.
* **Input Validation (Business Rule 4, NFR-002):** Both frontend and backend will perform input validation on user-provided location data to prevent injection attacks or invalid requests. The backend proxy will sanitize and validate all parameters before forwarding them to the external weather API.
* **CORS Configuration:** The Express.js backend will be configured with appropriate Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) headers to allow requests only from the Angular frontend's domain, preventing unauthorized cross-origin requests.
* **Error Handling:** The backend will avoid exposing sensitive internal error details to the client. Generic, user-friendly error messages will be returned instead (FR-007).
## Scalability Considerations
* **Frontend Scalability:** Angular's default build optimizations (tree-shaking, minification, lazy loading of feature modules) ensure efficient client-side performance. The modular architecture facilitates independent development and scaling of features.
* **Backend Scalability (NFR-005):**
* **Containerization (Docker):** The Express.js backend service will be containerized using Docker, allowing for easy deployment and orchestration in cloud environments (e.g., Kubernetes, AWS Fargate, Azure Container Instances).
* **Horizontal Scaling:** The stateless nature of the backend proxy (apart from caching) enables horizontal scaling, where multiple instances can run concurrently behind a load balancer to handle increased request load.
* **Caching (Redis):** Implementing Redis caching significantly reduces the load on the external weather API and improves response times, especially for frequently requested locations, thereby enhancing throughput and scalability (NFR-001, NFR-005, Business Rule 3).
* **External API Rate Limiting (Business Rule 2):** The backend proxy will implement mechanisms to respect the external weather API's rate limits, potentially queueing or throttling requests to avoid service interruptions.
* **Reliability (NFR-004):** The backend will incorporate retry mechanisms with exponential backoff for transient failures when communicating with the external weather API. Circuit breakers can be considered for more resilient handling of persistent external API outages.

- **Acceptance Criteria:**
- The backend service implements retry mechanisms for transient external API failures.
- In case of persistent external API failure, the application displays an informative error message instead of crashing.
- Data displayed is consistent with the latest information from the external weather API.
### NFR-005: Scalability
- **Description:** The system should be designed to handle an increasing number of users and data requests efficiently.
- **Acceptance Criteria:**
- The backend service can be deployed in a horizontally scalable manner (e.g., containerized).
- Caching mechanisms (e.g., Redis) can be integrated into the backend service to reduce redundant external API calls and improve response times under load.
