5 JavaScript Project Ideas Beyond TODO Apps.

Tired of building Todo apps?

✨ 5 JavaScript project ideas beyond TODO apps.

These projects will challenge you to get out of your comfort zone learn something new and implement it.

Let start!

1️⃣ Timeline Scrolling

Develop a web app that documents a series of historic events. Ideally, dates are separated evenly and make use of infinite scrolling.

For example, scrolling back to the 1980s is quick but scrolling back to the age of the dinosaurs is tedious.

2️⃣ Article Navigator

Provide a browser extension that outlines articles and shows a minimap of the page with scroll features.

The idea is to always have an accessible table of contents and quickly view the page structure without scrolling.

3️⃣ Digital Business Card

Develop a single-page app that is the equivalent of a business card.

Provide your contact information, social media links, and a short description of what you do.

Let the user decide to share it publically or only with selected people.

4️⃣ Pailgarism Checker

Display the similarities between two text inputs, or two files, and provide a score that states how similar they are.

Show the comparison in 2 files like how it is compared on GitHub.

5️⃣ Meme Platform

Use Giphy API to build your own searchable platform of memes.

This is a pretty cool list of projects! It's pretty boring to just stick with a TODO app and that's it. Pretty cool!

Thank You! After a certain point, TODO apps don't give you much learning. It is all just basic CRUD app.

Exactly. Plus, after some time, it just becomes boring.

Great ideas! After a while, Todo becomes the inevitable "Hello World" app, the way we get used to new ideas or patterns using a familiar context.

Thanks for these ideas!

Not sure about your exact requirements.

Install bootstrap via npm or use bootstrap cdn.
