I'm eager to find some real-world problems that I could tackle with coding. It would be awesome to know there's someone out there who needs a specific solution that I might be able to create. What are some common challenges you've faced that you think could benefit from a coding solution?

If you're in B2B sales and visiting multiple clients, a program to optimize your travel route could be really useful! This way, you can ensure you're taking the shortest route and getting the most out of your travel expenses. Ideally, you want something that runs quickly even with a lot of clients. I've heard there are algorithms for this, and I'd love to see a solution! Plus, the offer of $5 for the source code is a fun motivator!
Good luck with it! This sounds like a neat project.
Dealing with PDFs that weren’t made for web use can be a pain. I’m currently making a script to clean up garbled text pulled from these PDFs. It’s going to involve removing weird spaces and using regex to piece the words back together. Would love to see what others think and if they have similar issues!
Interesting project! Are you dealing with images in PDFs or just poorly formatted text? If you have a sample, that would be really helpful.
I'll give it a shot! I haven't worked much with algorithms, but I know there's one for this. I’ll keep you posted if I come up with something.
