Our community has been hard at work on some amazing projects this month — we cannot wait to see what October brings!
There’s no doubt that practicing projects is a great way to build your programming skills. If you are looking to pursue a career in tech, having projects to showcase will give you something to which you can refer in interviews and when networking.
What’s more, building a project gives you something cool that you can always say that you built. Without any further ado, let’s dive into the top projects upvoted by our community this week.
