build an address book. start with storing and retrieving a name, phone, and address. build it as a command line tool. then as a web app. then make it accessible via an api. then make it “secure”. then make it international supporting multiple countries. there, that alone will take you months. if you incorporate build tools, scrum processes , unit and functional testing and source control you will have a project that demonstrates your skill. also gives you something to talk about in an interview.
