So I’m a little bit into my universities CS program and as fun as it is to do simple payroll calculators and simple grade books are I really want to start working on something more “real world”. I feel like I have a semi-decent grounding in C++ now and I know a bit of python but I’m still solidly a beginner. I would love to start building somewhat of a portfolio but I’m really not sure where to start. Any advice is apreciated.

Have a search for issues tagged with first-timers-only or beginners like so:
There’s also a list here: https://github.com/MunGell/awesome-for-beginners and a Twitter bot built for this purpose as well @ https://twitter.com/first_tmrs_only/with_replies
Both of these were built based off this one blog post: https://blog.kentcdodds.com/first-timers-only-78281ea47455
