5 Advanced Coding Projects

Another youtube video based project that I want to do is-

Here’s a breakdown of the projects provided by Gemini- one per week

Week 1: GitHub Productivity VS Code Extension

• Project Goal: Create a VS Code extension that tracks your coding activity more accurately than the standard GitHub activity monitor.
• Weekly Tasks:
  • Research and design the extension’s core functionality:
    • How will it track coding activity (e.g., keystrokes, active window focus, etc.)?
    • How will it create and manage the “code tracking” repository?
    • Determine the frequency of commits (e.g., every 30 minutes).
  • Set up the development environment for VS Code extension development.
  • Start building the basic framework of the extension.

Week 2: Semantic Search of My Chat History

• Project Goal: Develop an application that allows users to semantically search their chat history across various platforms (Slack, WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger).
• Weekly Tasks:
  • Research data privacy and security implications.
  • Explore methods for securely collecting and storing user data (e.g., GDPR-compliant data requests).
  • Investigate embedding techniques for representing chat messages and queries.
  • Begin designing the user interface (UI) for the application.

Week 3: Win My Argument

• Project Goal: Build an AI-powered tool that helps users find relevant academic studies to support their arguments.
• Weekly Tasks:
  • Research and select a suitable dataset of academic abstracts (e.g., from arXiv.org).
  • Explore methods for efficiently storing and searching large volumes of text data.
  • Begin developing the core AI model for finding relevant studies based on user queries.
  • Design the user interface for the application.

Week 4: AWS Supporter Chrome Extension

• Project Goal: Create a Chrome extension that provides in-context assistance for navigating and using AWS services.
• Weekly Tasks:
  • Analyze the AWS user interface and identify key pain points.
  • Research and select an appropriate AI model for understanding user queries and providing step-by-step guidance.
  • Begin developing the Chrome extension’s core functionality:
    • Interacting with the AWS UI.
    • Providing in-context guidance and highlighting relevant UI elements.

Week 5: Domain Buying and Selling App

• Project Goal: Develop a mobile app for buying and selling domains, inspired by Robinhood’s stock trading interface.
• Weekly Tasks:
  • Research and select a domain registrar API for integrating with the app.
  • Design the user interface for the app, focusing on a sleek and user-friendly experience.
  • Begin developing the core functionality of the app:
    • Domain search and purchase.
    • Domain listing and selling.
    • User account management.

Important Notes:

• Prioritize Open Source: Ensure all projects are open-source to build trust and transparency.
• Focus on User Experience: Design user-friendly interfaces for all applications.
• Document Your Progress: Keep a detailed record of your work and any challenges encountered.
• Seek Feedback: Share your progress with others and solicit feedback.
