FWIW: I (@rondy) am not the creator of the content shared here, which is an excerpt from Edmond Lau's book. I simply copied and pasted it from another location and saved it as a personal note, before it gained popularity on news.ycombinator.com. Unfortunately, I cannot recall the exact origin of the original source, nor was I able to find the author's name, so I am can't provide the appropriate credits.

Project Ideas

Ok. I'm going to list off some ideas for projects. You will have to determine if any particular idea is good enough to include in a portfolio. These aren't creative ideas. They likely already exist. Some are way too advanced while others are simplistic.

I will recommend to post any project you make to github and make a github project page for it. Explain in as much detail as possible how you made it, how it can be improved etc. Document it.

If you pick an advanced idea, setup a development roadmap and follow it. This will show some project management skills.

Another piece of advice for those who are design challenged. Use different front end frameworks and use different themes for those frameworks to provide appealing designs without looking like yet another bootstrap site.

Open in Visual Studio Code

• Open Automator
• Create a new document
• Select Quick Action
• Set “Service receives selected” to files or folders in any application
• Add a Run Shell Script action
  • your default shell should already be selected, otherwise use /bin/zsh for macOS 10.15 (”Catalina”) or later
  • older versions of macOS use /bin/bash
• if you're using something else, you probably know what to do 😉

Tested only on Ubuntu 22.04, KDE Neon User Edition (based on Ubuntu 22.04) and OSX Mojave or higher.

will probably work on other newer versions, with no changes, or with few changes in non-python dependencies (apt-get packages)

NOTE: Don't create a .sh file and run it all at once. It may will not work. Copy, paste, and execute each command below manually. :-)
