4,272 PointsHow do you practice what you have learnt - apart from the course challenges?
I have been going through the courses and I thought it would be a good idea if there was a method to practice what you have learnt. The in-built challenges are quite helpful, but I wanted to hear everyone's ideas about taking this a step further... I am new to this so I'm not very familiar to open-source. I have downloaded an editor and practice some of the stuff I have learnt. What about you guys?

Python Web Development Techdegree Student 38,322 PointsI go through a single course and then I try to find a project to make where I can use what I have just learned.
A quick search on google will give you a lot of project suggestions.
I'm not sure what track you are on, but I have a few projects on my GitHub which might give some inspiration :-)
examples
- Alarm - This program will open youtube and start playing a song when the timer ends (written in python)
- Local Weather App - A JavaScript project (title says it all)
- Random Quote - Give you a random quote which you can share with friends on twitter (JavaScript)
And I'm currently working on a Periodic Table project in python to learn how to work with json.
I hope this gave you a few ideas what you could go create :-)
