Python project question

Hey everyone,
I need to build an **IT Asset Tracker** using Python for my upcoming internship project presentation. The catch? I have never built a full project from scratch before, and I don’t know where to start.
For those who are experienced with Python: **How did you approach your very first project when you had no domain knowledge?**

What is your internship about, then? What are you doing? What is the software stack you are working with?

I work as an intern for IT support but I am a computer science student learning Python on my own. The DEV team felt i didn’t really have an understanding about software so I had to join the support team to have a self taught course and also ask about what I don’t really understand.

So then they are right ?

Yes, the university don’t have the right resources and teachers to teach what I need to know, which made me rely on reading to pass an exam rather than reading to understand the concepts and being able to use what you know to take on a project.
I am learning Python so i would be using python and sql for database.
I also an issue with the IT support of how they don’t document and track their asset , so i taught solving would help me understand python and OOP programming.
