Picking Projects
Published on: Jun 29, 2021Filed under: Technology
Having put a pin in LoreTap [Project 1], the other weekend I started doing pre-work on Project 2. Between my personal beliefs on task planning, the learnings I got from Timothy, and the sheer number of items on my growth user stories - a clever to-do list app seemed like a good choice.
I spent a day or so building out the foundation - getting Django set up, provisioned, containerized, and ready for multiple users. While it was tedious work, it was also good practice that left me more than a fair bit drained.
I had an urge to work on some meaningful Machine Learning. To pull in some data and train a model and see if I couldn’t leverage something like FastAPI.
Until I get a good idea for a project, I’m working my way through the book Hands-On Machine Learning with Scikit-Learn, Keras, and Tensorflow by Aurélien Géron. It’s a breezy book so far, a nice refresher on concepts that I haven’t touched in a while.
Then maybe I’ll get back to that to-do list app.
