Project Ideas
Here is a partial list of potential future projects for thewebfromscratch.com
These are all software (or in a couple cases, hardware) projects that I think would be fun to try and build “from scratch.” Some of these are web applications, most of them are lower-level tools or technologies that are used in the development of applications, or of the internet itself. Some of them are newer technologies that weren’t used in the initial development of the internet, but are becoming or are likely to become a major factor in the future of the web (or technology in general). In some cases, I’ve listed a generic term for the project (i.e. Front-End Framework). In some cases where it seemed to make sense, I’ve listed the most prominent example of the project (i.e. Kubernetes)
I’d like to render this list in a more attractive format, but for now it’s just a list. If you have ideas you think should be added to this list, please leave a comment below or shoot me an email at admin@thewebfromscratch.com.
