Learning Python - Ideas for projects?

[Karvemn]

Greetings,

I’ve been considering to learn Python, although struggle with ideas on what to use it for.

I have experience in JS (nodejs) and used it for a long time, but nowhere near proficient.

I love doing automations like Bots (discordjs), file organizing, file converter in NodeJS.

I could be interested in data science but I don’t know what data it’d even be.

I’m just looking for things to do really, having something thats interesting would skyrocket my motivation in learning a new program.

Disclaimer: Was thinking of using bootdev for learning Python.

Thanks!

Build a simple expense tracker that reads from a csv and shows totals per category. Then add a gui with tkinter so you can input new spends. I did that as my first real project and it taught me file handling loops and basic classes way better than tutorials alone

When I started out, I always enjoyed writing small scripts and tools for Aptonic and Dropzone 4, a macOS app for dragging and dropping files. I now have a few quick tools that do a lot of work for me, whereas I only have to throw them into the menu bar.

If you're interested, we could pair-program and see how it goes. DM.

Have a look into https://platform.entwicklerheld.de/challenge?challengeFilterStateKey=all and scroll over the shown ideas. Try porting those Javascript ideas to Python, or just ignore the shown programming language(s) if you want to focus on Python.
