LLMs are all the hype but there are plenty of solid computer science projects. Some options that come to mind:
- Your own DB engine
- Your own game engine (you can put a cool twist on it - I had a thought of making a game in non-euclidean 3D space)
- Your own <insert network protocol> client/server Etc…
A more general option is to look for free APIs and use that is base for ideas.
What topics do you find interesting?
I didn’t say they are “all hype”, I said they are “all the hype”. I agree they are useful, but over hyped.
