created 2022/09/16 modified 2023/09/13 category rainmeter
first edition of my modular grid rainmeter skin with highly customizable tiles
included tiles:
edit tiles.ini to modify the grid appearance and layout as well as the individual tile settings
edit @Resources/WeatherCOMJson/Variables.inc to change the weather settings (you must use lat/long coordinates)
install the webnowplaying companion for your browser for media controls/display to work
with only this skin loaded rainmeter uses ~1.5% cpu + ~1.5% gpu in the background on a ryzen 5 2600X + gtx 1660ti
the weather tile is implemented using jsmorely's weather.com api parser. in case the weather breaks you can patch the @Resources/WeatherCOMJson/Measures.inc file with the latest WeatherComJSONMeasures.inc from jsmorely. if you need to patch the entirety of Variables.inc too, make sure you multiply UpdateRate by 25, eg. `UpdateRate = (3600 * 25)`. you need to do this since tiles.ini updates at 40ms but the default value expects an update of 1000ms

the cover art tile, title + artist on the visualizer tile, and media control tile all rely on WebNowPlaying to function, please make sure you have the web companion installed for those functions to work, or the webnowplaying extension enabled in spicetify

the hover animations as well some audio tile logic borrow elements from eldog skins
