I've been struggling to come up with project ideas that are original and not just clones of existing ones or typical projects like flashcard generators, weather apps, and calculators. It's been really tough for me, and even using AI tools like ChatGPT hasn't helped much since the ideas still feel so basic. I'm curious to hear how you all come up with unique project ideas or what inspired your flagship projects!

I often dive into topics I'm interested in, like compilers, and just start learning about related concepts. This lets me discover what really excites me, which often leads to project ideas. For example, I got really into preprocessors after starting with compilers. It’s a journey of exploration!
That's a great approach! I was reminded of my interest in space tech, which I kind of ignored. I’ll definitely look into it again, thanks!
