Sunrise & Sunset widget for Windows
A day arc with the sun's current position on it, a countdown to sunset, golden hour, and how long the day actually is. It is all computed locally from your latitude and longitude, so there is no API key to get and nothing to go down. Optionally get a notification a set number of minutes before sunset.
