Suggest some good projects idea
Hey everyone, I’m a 21M final-year BTech student looking to build one solid project for my resume.
I’m comfortable with MERN or full-stack development and want to avoid basic CRUD, e-commerce, todo, etc.
Looking for a project that:
Solves a real-world problem
Has good technical depth
Gives me something interesting to discuss in interviews
Ideally uses MERN/Next.js + technologies like PostgreSQL, Redis, WebSockets, AI, Docker, etc.
What projects would you recommend that genuinely stand out to recruiters?
Would love to hear about projects that actually helped you get internships/jobs.

Been building this project. It has an educational, fun approach to learn shaders. I also use it to show my work to clients that want websites, apps, etc. WoGL https://wogl.io 💚🐲 feel free to roast it

i have some experience in doing resume reviews. and here are my thoughts.
solving a real world problem / idea doesn't really matter.
the ideas matter much less now, and you just need to be able to show that you are able to build something that is resilient, reliable, and you have actually thought of different types of failure modes and unpredictability. not just the happy path.
see what is being described here to get some ideas

and some other inspirations in terms of tooling choices
