Capstone Project Ideas
Hi guys, I am currently looking for a solid project idea for PRJ566. So far, our team came up with 2 ideas, but the prof doesn't like any.
First, we decided to build a chat application, but he said how does it solve an actual problem. Then, we proposed something similar to Kijijji but just for Seneca. He didn't like that either (already done by students).
Does anyone have any leads for what we can work on? We need to finalize it by tomorrow.

Comprehensive plant care app that adjusts by species, temperature, humidity, and season, add your plants to your list and it reminds you to water them, change the soil, move them into a bigger pot, etc.
idk
Ahh, that sounds like a good one.
My brain just dies when asked to come up with something creative
A C++ code formatter which integrates nicely with VSCode, that would definitely solve one of my problems
Or just rewrite any shit software that annoys you on a regular basis
Make an iPhone music app that lets you download YouTube videos, using something similar to yt-dlp, that would solve me a real problem of having to yt-dlp on my pc and then sync to my phone
Maybe a useful chrome extension
Don’t start with a project idea, start with a problem, then decide if you can solve it with a project. For example, Windows file explorer sucks (bad performance, lacking important features) is a problem, and it can be solved by writing a better file explorer, boom there’s your project
You're right, I should be focusing on the problems. Thanks for the tips!
Lmk what u come up with I’m curious
yee the plant one was inspired by my graveyard of plants lmfao
@mcsevs21 We thought a lot, and decided to go with a table reservation system for restaurants as I've notices most of the places still use physical registers and phone calls to do the bookings. Even though there are some solutions for this is in the market, they charge huge amounts of money because they enjoy a monopoly. We're also thinking of implementing a microservice that automatically updates the status of tables by linking the the tables to corresponding payments.
I am pretty sure, there could be better ideas. But this is what we could come up with
Implement with imgui if you are chads
There's no way I am touching C++ ever again 😂 
Weak
That’s pretty nice, I’m just trying on new tech like react native
