Think of the simplest thing you want to solve and then go full throttle on it.
For myself, I have been keeping track of my weight. I just have a notepad on my desk where I log my weight every morning. Simple, convenient, easy.
So I decided to make a single page app that allows me to log my data. I host it on a raspberry pi I have at home. Postgres DB, React front-end, Spring back end. I'm even flirting with the idea of using redis.
Does this make any sense? No. My notebook works wonders in making sure I am aware of my eating habits post-hoc. Did I learn a lot from what I did? Kinda. I'm no expert, but I know more than before.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
