# For Later **Single-tile weather radar** Using the RainViewer API for the radar and an OpenStreetMap tileserver for the map tile. Make a gif with a few frames of radar so we can embed it on the site. Zoomed out far enough that I'm not worried about opsec and with no marker for where I am in the tile. ## Dirfiles These are files that match the name of the directory. The problem with a normal `index.html` is that you need the full path to get a semblance of what the file is for. This can be solved by matching the served file of a directory to it's name. For example, a `multimedia/` would have it's `index.html` renamed to `multimedia.html`. This does, however, make it harder to change the name/path of directories as you'll have to rename the dirfile if the directory name changes. What do you name the root file, then? You shouldn't have to match the webroot's directory name. Perhaps it should be configurable. I think for now we'll hard-code in `home.html`, though. ## Page-content uses templates Because writing the same outer-html for everything poses a few problems. I'll enumerate them for fun! 1) it makes keeping a consistent page style difficult. 2) making a style change or renaming a core-stylesheet would require going through and editing a large number of files. 3) helps separate the layout and content of the page. We're using the bempline templating engine. Not because it's the best or even really *that good*, but because I wrote it and I like it :) Page-content files will have frontmatter in the form: ``` --- key=value --- ``` blank lines and comments are acceptable. comments are lines starting with a `#` with these keys being common and defined. **title** (default: filename) the `
