Portfolio projects Memes

The eternal beginner's dilemma: choosing between the two most oversaturated tutorial projects in existence. Todo apps are basically the "Hello World" of CRUD operations, while weather apps are the "Hello World" of API calls. Both have been built approximately 47 million times by bootcamp graduates worldwide. The real pain here is that newbie devs genuinely stress over this choice like it's a life-altering decision, when in reality they'll end up building both anyway, abandoning them halfway through, and then starting a calculator app next week. The portfolio graveyard is real.

Ever notice how we've mastered creating 748 different to-do list apps but still haven't figured out flying cars? The tech industry in a nutshell—spending countless hours building yet another CRUD app with authentication while our sci-fi dreams collect dust. Meanwhile, bootcamp grads are busy creating weather apps that tell you it's raining... while you're standing in the rain. The real innovation bottleneck isn't technology—it's developers padding their GitHub profiles with projects nobody asked for instead of building the jetpacks we were promised. Maybe if we redirected the collective brainpower spent on "Uber for dogs" startups, we'd actually have those self-tying shoes from Back to the Future by now.
