How to Get the Idea to Create a Web App Project as a Beginner
Posted on 2024-08-28

Do you ever feel confused when trying to come up with ideas for a web project? Sometimes, when learning web development, we struggle to decide what we want to create or build. If you're experiencing this, I have some solutions to help you overcome it.
Firstly, let me share my experience of how I got the idea to create a web app project as a beginner. While I was learning a new programming language, I felt confused about how to apply it to a real project. I overthought it for a week, wasting time in the process. During that same period, I had a problem managing my time. That’s when I got the idea to solve my problem by using what I knew about web development to create my own app. I built a simple project to manage my time using React.
Before this, I didn't know how to apply my knowledge to a real project, even though there were many videos on YouTube explaining various projects. However, I chose not to watch them because I didn't want to fall into the "tutorial hell" trap. After coming up with the idea, I started working on the project and finished it within a week. I was really happy because, for the first time I was able to create something. Even though the project was very simple, it helped me in many ways.
The lesson I learned after finishing my project is that ideas often come when you face a problem. You can implement code to solve your own problems and turn it into an app. Essentially, to become a programmer or web developer, you need to solve problems. Create an app and solve it. This is the simple project I created when I had a problem.

This is an open-source project. If you want to use it, you can use it for learning.
Thanks for your attention!
