#practicecoding-people, if you have suggestions for the project, please suggest away!
Current ideas are: a Mastodon bot, a mosaic generator and a polling feature for Mastodon. I'll add some of my weirder suggestions as a reply here. :)

TQ☄️ @TQ@octodon.social

#practicecoding project ideas:
- an add-in that memeifies a toot
- Mastodon poem-maker (inspired by poetweet.com.br)
- a calculator that tries to find out when your TL on Mastodon wakes up / goes to sleep

@TQ Soooo... do you really want to go into Mastodon code / API?

Because if you want to build a polling tool for mastodon? Everyone who might be just starting to learn basic programming will be lost?

@Jules I'm not sure about that, but as it was a suggestion I didn't want to decide for other users. I must admit I like my own suggestions better. ;)

Alex@rtnVFRmedia Suffolk UK @vfrmedia

@TQ @Jules suggest starting off with simpler projects and *then* introducing coding for Mastodon API. As folk will need to learn the basics of stuff like connecting to other sites and exchanging data, security/authorisation etc and those topics need knowledge of basic principles first.

@vfrmedia I agree. We could start with a few simple programs, that everyone writes on their own. Then start to think bigger and decide on a team-project? @TQ
