Creator of AngularCourse here.
Really glad that you like the product aspect of the course. I spent a lot of time thinking about what to build for the sample app. My goal was to solve a real problem that I have.
The app is not groundbreaking by any means, but I wanted it to give people the sense that they were building something real. Some students have told me that it feels like they're actually building a startup in the course, and quite a few of them have actually asked if they could sell the product to real businesses. Of course I encouraged them to do so.
Development isn't just about programming, it's about building cool things, and I felt that by doing another todo list, blog, or clone of X, I'd be doing people a disservice.
