I'm looking to keep my skills sharp and would like some sort of brief to work to. Does anyone have an idea where I could go? Learning the skills here is great, but I'd like to apply them to some sort of project. Any ideas?

Thanks

Hello Kristian!

Are you looking to do some actual paid work or do you just want to complete some hobby projects?

Hey! Right at this moment I wouldn't feel comfortable requesting money. Not until my skill and knowledge are where they need to be. So, preferably unpaid work. Just to practice and build my confidence.

Thanks

In that case I would recommend you take a look through this list of projects which someone kindly posted over on Github!

Great! Thanks!

No problem!

If you are looking to create a site here is another idea for you! Make up a company and then create a website for this company. I would advise that you create a company about something that you are interested in so that the project is a lot more fun.

Another idea, as well, is to create a portfolio for your web design services. This would be a great way to practice creating websites and it would also allow you to get your name out there as a Web Developer.
