Product 1: Cabin og Home

← Back to the goal: 6 Products in 2026

The first product in my goal of 6 products in 2026 is Cabin og Home — an app that lets you compare the weather in two places, for example at home and at the cabin.

The idea

Many of us have a cabin or holiday home we visit on weekends. The question is always the same: is the weather better there than at home? Instead of checking yr.no twice and comparing manually, Cabin og Home does it for you — side by side.

How it looks

Features

• Weather comparison between two locations using data from the Norwegian Meteorological Institute (MET)
• Summary with highest and lowest temperatures, total precipitation and sun hours
• Detailed hourly forecast for each day
• Filter by period to check the weather for exactly when you're planning to go
• Find places easily with map search powered by OpenStreetMap
• Celsius and Fahrenheit — choose your preference
• 15 languages supported

How I built it

The app is built with Flutter, which makes it possible to write a single codebase for both iOS and Android. Weather data comes from the Norwegian Meteorological Institute API (MET) — the same open API that yr.no uses. Map search is powered by OpenStreetMap via Nominatim.

Flutter was a good fit for this project because it lets me quickly build a clean and responsive interface that works the same on both platforms.
