Re: "Suggestions for personal projects"
I have a very specific idea which I've been thinking about creating myself but I really just want to use. I'd like a simpke way to input mathematical equations describing shapes and output a PDF with custom dimensions which have these shapes drawn on them. My specific use case would be generating printable sewing patterns, but I imagine there are a variety of uses.
I doubt this project interests you, but if it does it's an idea.

I am suspecting you are trying to fill your profile in order to get some job interview or something. You dont need that. Everybody already know how good or bad programmer you are.

Also try demoscene. Write a small program that generate simple graphics. Submit it to the demoscene event. Then you should actually go to that partyplace and socialize. You will figure out yourself what to do next.

@nikhotmsk Well, I *am* applying to university; but its mainly for practise and for fun. Besides, the Codeberg link I gave the universities is for the organisation I just moved all of the good stuff to.
Suggestions for personal projects — I've just transferred all of my serious projects on Codeberg over to a separate organisation, and I've noticed that there are now only two mediocre repos on my main profile. Does anyone have any ideas for simple, handy things I could build to flesh it out? I code mainly in Python, I know HTML (but not JS), I regularly use Bash and Zsh, and I am learning C++.
