<style lang="scss">
:root {
  --bg-color-1: rgb(233, 233, 239);
}

.weather-widget-container {
  width: 320px;
  height: 380px;
  border-radius: 12px;
  box-shadow: 
    0px 0px 2px 4px rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.1),
    -12px -12px 32px rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.5),
    12px 12px 32px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);
}

#app .open-weather-widget {
  border-radius: 12px;
  background-color: var(--bg-color-1);
  &__input-element {
    & label {
      background-color: var(--bg-color-1);
    }

  &__sortable-list {
    &__item {
      padding: 12px;
      margin: 16px 0;

      border-radius: 4px;
      border: none;
      box-shadow: 
        -2px -2px 8px rgba(255,255,255,0.6), 
        2px 2px 8px rgba(0,0,0,0.1);
