Hey there...!
Is there a weather module here in Backdrop that has eluded me...?
Or is anybody porting one here...?
Drupal's Weather module (https://www.drupal.org/project/weather) seems to be the way to go.
Thanks for any input.
Warm regards from sunny México.

Hi José,
to my knowledge there's no such module yet for Backdrop.
If you want that Drupal module to get ported, your first step would be to open a port request in this issue queue.
Are you able to port it yourself?
Hi indigoxela.
Thanks for your prompt reply.
Well, no, I have never attempted a port before –I'm barely a site builder.
I can certainly try to, though, with the right guidance.
I remember reading somewhere some sort of porting ABC.

Hi José,
Cool, you're welcome. Do you have an account on Github yet?
If not, this would be your first step.
There's also a helper module to assist people. And you can always ask for help here in the forum, or in our Zulip chat.
Thanks again, indigoxela.
I do have a Github account, although I use it to download stuff like backdrop updates and ddev, for instance. So I guess I'll have to really learn how to use it... hehe
And already found https://docs.backdropcms.org/converting-modules-from-drupal so I'll start reading it tomorrow Monday and see what I can learn...
Warmest regards.

Hey there.
Just finished reading the converting modules instructions (https://docs.backdropcms.org/converting-modules-from-drupal), watched twice @quicksketch's video and used the Coder Upgrade module.
Porting this module is way above and beyond my skills, and then come the maintenance duties.
So I'll have to make a port request, offering any assistance I can handle.
