A tiny weather display console using a Pi Zero W and PaPiRus 2" (200x96) eInk display

FILENAME: README.md

PURPOSE

This code uses a Raspberry Pi Zero W to query the Open Weather Maps API, retrieve the current weather data for a location specified by the user, formats the response, and then displays it on a PaPiRus eInk display.

BACKGROUND

This code was based on code taken from a tutorial on the Adafruit website. The original code was written to work with an Adafruit eInk display. This version was modified to work with a 2.0" (200x96) PaPiRus eInk display attached to a Raspberry Pi Zero W.
