5 Projects That Got Me A Software Engineering Job 

Nope, just stuff that interests you

Thank you! That is definitely a great idea, make use of the free time.

@@AlgosWithMichael What would you suggest to a beginner? What can I learn?

I would say try to automate a repetitive task that you do alot. This is a good project because typically this won't take too long to make and you will see great benefit from it! Don't worry about the exact tech stack, just make sure you are interested in what you are building.

The ideas are really just things that I have an interest in. In terms of motivation, at the time when I was creating all of these projects my motivation was getting my first job haha

Thanks man, I appreciate the kind words!

Haha honestly I'm not sure

Building out an API with different CRUD operations using a database of your choice is a great place to start. This type of work is prevalent for 99% of backend engineering jobs.

Language was python, tkinter was the GUI framework I used :)

Definitely. I started doing some of these projects my 3rd year as well

I only have some of the projects publicly available

YES! thank you :p

Good to deploy it

It has taken a lot of practice honestly lol. If you look at my newer videos, my sound quality and conciseness has improved. I usually will just record my voice and the screen together that way I don't have to sync it up later.

Yep!

Mix Tape Maker was a super clever idea.

Download the source and install RU-vid-dl, it should work with windows fine

@@AlgosWithMichael ok bro

Thank you! Feel free to go to my github, I have all of the code available.

try it on your own and you can also clear your doubts on youtube ..as there are so many creators who can help you in achieving your first project.

Definitely try it on your own, that is when you learn the most

Try to automate an annoying task, easy project

Tq

It was using the Android framework with Java. Some of the libraries were Dagger 2, Realm, Butterknife, Material Date Time Picker, and Tag View. All Android specific libraries obviously

@@AlgosWithMichaelDid you use Android studio?

Yep!

The point of games like these are to put yourself in a position where you don't even have to play the game anymore to win lol

For me it was just to learn the Android framework

if you're a beginner, probably not but if you have a ton of time within that month, it's possible.

I haven't used spring haha

To an extent, but I would say definitely try to do some projects on your own

Learn the programming language(s) that will allow you to complete projects you want to do. For example, if you want to make IOS apps, learn swift, if you want to make websites, learn javascript, etc. I started with Java because I wanted to make Android apps.

@@AlgosWithMichael thank you

I'd love to!
