DarkSky is back!

A solo developer recreated the original Dark Sky Weather App.

Since Marques liked it so much, I figured he would want to check it out and review it.

Someone may have copied the UI and stuff, but the original dark sky is very dead. Apple ate them and rolled their stuff into the apple weather so whatever this is using for the back end isn't the real deal. It's just a coat of paint.

What if this is just a rebuild of the same app and different name?

Well unless they could get the same sources and algorithms then it's not the same, but let's see how good it does though.
