Feature Request: Add Spacebar Key Listener for Play/Pause on Forecast Timeline

matheusmarrane

I am a regular user of Windy.com and greatly appreciate the detailed weather visualizations and interactive features your platform offers. The forecast timeline animation is particularly useful for understanding weather patterns over time.

I would like to suggest a small but impactful enhancement: adding a spacebar key listener to toggle play/pause on the forecast timeline. This functionality is common in media players and timeline-based interfaces (e.g., video players, Google Earth), and it would improve usability, especially for keyboard-centric users who prefer not to switch to the mouse for basic controls.

Implementing this could be as simple as detecting the space key press event and linking it to the existing play/pause toggle, ensuring it doesn't conflict with other keyboard shortcuts on the site.
Thank you for considering this request. I believe it would enhance the user experience for many of your community members.

Best regards,
Matheus Marrane
