+
+## Features

+- Fetches real-time UV index data based on user-provided latitude and longitude.
+- Provides personalized sunscreen advice based on UV exposure:
+  - Low UV index: minimal protection recommended.
+  - Moderate to extreme UV index: higher SPF and protective measures are suggested.
+- Differentiates advice for indoor and outdoor scenarios.
+
+## Requirements
+
+- Python 3.x
+- `requests` library for making HTTP API requests.
+
+## Setup
+
+### Install the required libraries:
+
+```bash
+pip install requests
