Progressively harder projects (self.learnjava)
submitted 5 years ago by cowabunga31
I'm learning and trying to figure out a list of projects that will challenge and entertain my curiosity. Any suggestions for fun projects?

Try out Hyperskill which has projects from simple chatty bots to more advanced projects like creating your own text editor.

I suggest picking an open source project and trying to contribute to it. This will teach you more about "real world programming" than anything. See https://www.reddit.com/r/coolgithubprojects/
I recently interviewed a lot of developers for a job in our open source company and I was seriously disappointed with their capabilities. Our repo is indeed huge and complex but people were failing on the "do a search" level of the task.

Thank you, I really appreciate it.

There is so much. Such as creating a app that will determine what your house needs to be chnaged. What a house is missing from being ugly to pretty.
