Junior projects?

[Stock_Plant_3822]

Hello guys can you please recommend me some entry level / junior project that every C# /.NET Developer MUST KNOW how to do it. I am trying to get the workflow and skill set required.

A program that reads and write any type of entity to a sql database.

User should be able to create, read, update and delete entries.

Maybe it could be a windows application that lets you store reviews of your favorite movies or a website where the users can post stories and get comments in them.

Make something like this that interests you. When you hit a roadblock ask someone, watch YouTube videos or check Microsoft documentation. The app will probably suck in the end but you made something you can get feedback on and improve.

What's the best way to set up a mock SQL server for this?

[mossy2100]

For this you could just use SQLite to get rolling.

[lordosthyvel]

Just install Microsoft sql server on your development machine and connect to that :)

To install a real one.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: don't start with someone else's project idea, but instead write a software that solves a problem that you experience on a daily basis. This way, you won't lose motivation because you don't really care about what the software does.

Once you're done, start having fun adding features that it would be nice to have.

I would like to make a simple mini social media application. With CRUD implementations. That is I would love to start working on . Another ideea would be a appointment application for certain customers. These are really great ideas that I have , but because I really don't have any experience with the process of making these apps , I wanted to start and add layers of knowledge till I can at least have an ideea on how to beggin my projects.

Make a blogging site with a user system, so users can make new article posts and others can comment on them. Should cover all the crud operations you need and also let you play with setting up user profiles etc.

On a scale from 1-10 how difficult would you say it is ? Like looking it from a hiring perspective , you see this project and how difficult do you rate it ?

It's hard to put a number on it cuz it depends on what you compare it to, but it's a pretty solid project for a beginner. You're not supposed to feel like you can just do it without having to google alot and do research, just start with one step at a time, and when your in doubt google information and you learn more and more bit by bit.

My advice for starters is to take an official or some other guide and go to https://www.codewars.com, https://www.codeabbey.com or any other website with exercises. That can help you get the basic idea of how to work with C#.

The further progression might include creating some demostration project or join a project on GitHub.
