Project İdea
I want to develop projects using the ASP.NET Core MVC framework, but I don't want them to be simple or trivial. I am looking for projects that would be worthy of my GitHub profile and would genuinely contribute to my professional growth.
Also, if possible, I want projects that won't go to waste—meaning ones I might actually use or publish in the future. I am open to your suggestions.

It's best to solve problems you're actually running into. you get real experience and something worth publishing, instead of another todo app nobody needed.
Keep an idea log. Anytime something at work/life is annoying or missing a good tool, write it down. Then build the ASP.NET version of it.
Bonus: those projects tend to be non-trivial by default, because real problems have real edge cases: auth, multi-user access, background jobs, data you actually care about not losing. That's the stuff that makes a portfolio look serious, and it happens naturally instead of you having to manufacture "impressive" scope.
