SPECTRA strips away the visual noise of conventional weather apps and renders atmospheric conditions as real-time generative art. Six dynamic modes: beam (clear), precipitation lines (rain), noise field (clouds), lightning (storms), vortex (wind), particles (snow). Each visualization responds to live weather data—intensity, density, motion. The clear-sky beam tracks actual solar position, widening at noon and narrowing at dusk. No icons. No charts. Just atmospheric presence.

Hey Product Hunt 👋
I'm Kaz, and I just launched SPECTRA after months of obsessing over a single question: what if weather forecasts were rendered as light and motion instead of icons and numbers?
What it does:
SPECTRA translates atmospheric conditions into real-time generative visualizations. Rain becomes falling lines. Wind becomes turbulent vortex patterns. Clear skies become a solar-responsive beam that widens at noon and narrows at dusk.
Why I built it:
I got tired of weather apps that feel like spreadsheets. I wanted something you could glance at and immediately feel the conditions—not analyze them. Something that reflects the atmosphere outside without demanding attention.
Technical highlights:
- 19-beam solar irradiance simulation (tracks actual sun elevation)
- Real-time parameter mapping: rain intensity, wind speed, cloud cover all drive the visuals
- Built in SwiftUI with 60fps Canvas rendering
- Localized in 8 languages
The model:
7-day free trial, then $5.99 one-time unlock (no subscription, no ads, no tracking)
What I'd love feedback on:
- Does the generative approach resonate with you?
- Which weather mode is your favorite?
- Any features you'd want to see in v1.1?
Thanks for checking it out. This community has been incredibly supportive of indie makers, and I'm excited to hear what you think.
