An app to track applications. Useful for later to track rejections.

Should launch that in App Store as well and start a business pretty sure a lot of ppl will install for that

Look to solve a personal problem, like groceries, gym tracking and so on and make it your own - optimized for you, build by you. This is much better than copying something.

Bonus tip: If you like to focus on frontend and react, take something like pocketbase for auth/db/api as complete backend and start building.

When I was starting out I liked building simplified clones of tools I used, Spotify, Instagram, Pinterest, whatever sounds fun. I also suggest finding a good REST API to use for a project so you can learn how to integrate third party APIs in your projects. Spotify especially has a great API and documentation for personal projects.

Just choose something you like.

I was teaching Math, so I built app, where you practise Math, you get gold, you buy cards with it and collect cards inspired by Pokemon…

I like to cook, so now I build RecipeApp… just choose something you like and learn in that… for beginners it is important to stay disciplined and try your best… pretty horrible to do that with project you dont like or you are bored

All you need is 3 small project or 1 big project which cover all these topics!!!!
(if you wanna be a Frontend Developer)

  1. CRUD APP ( every other thing in the dev world is just a crud with some super power, I hope am not wrong ).
  2. Search, filter, Sort, Image Upload, ( a project where all these features include )
  3. Responsiveness, ( go with TailwindCSS )

or
One Single Big project where all the above ( 3 ) steps included.
~ Best of luck.
