"""
Put this code on a properly configured PyPortal. You can buy one
from Adafruit:
https://www.adafruit.com/product/4116

Special thanks to John for posting touch-screen code he used in his
PyPortal app launcher:
https://furcean.com/2019/03/21/pyportal-app-launcher/

And John Park & the Adafruit crew for the PyPortal Weather Station
demo, which was helpful in understanding JSON parsing.
