The Weather App provides a section that displays a message with the current
temperature. Besides the section, this app also includes a loader, a TypeScript
function that returns data typically needed in a Section. This specific loader
retrieves the temperature of a given location (or the current location if no
location is specified). Let’s use both and see how they can be integrated.
Open the section properties. The only property this section has is a
temperature, which is a number representing the temperature in Celsius.

3. Use the App’s Functionalities
3.1 Go to the WhatsTheTemperature Section
Navigate to the Sections Page and click on the WhatsTheTemperature Section. You can filter the list by the app.
Open the section properties. The only property this section has is a
temperature, which is a number representing the temperature in Celsius.
3.2 Configure the Section to Use the App’s Loader
Click on the Temperature field to choose how you will provide the temperature information.
You have three options:
-
Manual Entry: Provide an arbitrary number for the temperature.
-
Default Value: Leave the temperature field blank. The section accepts a
null value, and a default fixed temperature will be displayed.
-
Use the Loader: Utilize the loader made available by the Weather App.
If you do not provide latitude and longitude, the loader will fetch the
temperature of your current location. Alternatively, providing the latitude
and longitude of a specific place will return the current temperature for
that location:
