Upcoming changes to Windy Plugin system
Dear developer
After a long time, we had some time to tweak our system for external developers.
Important changes:
-
Very soon, list of installed plugins will be synced in between your devices (and also saved on the cloud). This also means, that external plugins can be accessible only by registered user.
-
New version of Windy, that should be released till end of 2026 will finally enable to use external plugins on mobile devices also in iOS and Android App. To meet strict privacy requirements of Windy.com, Apple and Google, only published and approved plugins will be enabled.
-
We are internally developing new WebGl mapping library for Windy, that will replace legacy Leaflet. But do not worry. This library should have Leaflet compatible API, so you should be able to convert your plugin in no time.
Any new infos will be provided in this category

RE: Changing forefact location makes timeline scrolling smoothly back to current time
@Suty Yup, it looks like so, but it actually is annoying when used for checking of multiple locations for the future. Yet, the website app doesn't have such behaviour.
Anyway thank you for the promise and looking forward to see the fix :o)
Hodně štěstí a ať se daří ;o)

RE: Changing forefact location makes timeline scrolling smoothly back to current time
@Suty I can see the behaviour in the Android app on my phone. The website is okay, it keeps the selected timeline on location change.
But even if I have selected time in timeline in the mobile app, it keeps scrolling to the start of timeline. It's not possible to stop scrolling by touching on the bottom detailed timeline - it's possible only by touching on the upper overview line and timeline moves to the position that was touched (even that is a bit off - usually it moves to one day later than where I've touched).

RE: Wrong link
@vicb Docs repo is very complicated since it uses automatically exported docs from client codes
So there is a lot of scripts etc.
Not so easy
lets have a separate repo
