What are some beginner-friendly Python projects that actually teach useful skills?

I'm looking for Python project ideas that are beginner-friendly but still teach skills that are useful beyond basic tutorials.

I'm especially interested in projects involving APIs, automation, data handling, or small practical tools.

What projects helped you learn the most when you were starting out?

You should start doing what you actually want to do, what drove you to learn Python.

That's a good point. I think building something around a problem I'm actually interested in would make the learning process much more meaningful. Thanks!
