=============
Copyright 2014-2023 Matthew Wall
This example illustrates how to implement a skin and package it so that it can be installed by the
extension installer. It also illustrates how to internationalize a skin.
Installation instructions using the installer (recommended)

1) Install the extension.
For pip installs:
weectl extension install ~/weewx-data/examples/basic
