Hey !

For a very basic project to get my hand dirty I would recommend a simple CRUD projects. (Based on .. Cats ? Racoons ? Up to you !)

If you want to go deeper and don't really feel to decide what kind of design your project should have nor what kind of features you should add, clone an already existing website. Twitter ? Dev.to ?

Here's some "intermediate" features that come to my mind :

  • Authentification (maybe through third-parties such as Google / Github ?)
  • Manage different roles within your project (Admins / Regular users)
  • Try to add some nice transitions effects (if CSS is your thing)

The important part is not to get bored of the project, which decisions about UI/UX tend to do IMO. (Unless that's what you like, then it's totally fine)

Thanks so much for the suggestions, I have zero idea about making clones but I'd explore that for sure, rn I want to do an intermiediate level project, and I'd keep your suggestions in mind for sure. Thanks again :D
