These are all cool projects that offer much to learn, but honestly, I doubt any of them sets a portfolio apart. I wouldn't really pay much attention to any of them when scrolling through the portfolio.

Thanks for sharing your opinion!

I thought about this post as a way to encourage beginners to build something different that requires the same tools they usually use. I've reviewed portfolios from beginner candidates for companies. You see a lot of the typical websites (e-commerce, planners, etc). But you don't usually see Chrome extensions, for example. That's why I thought this kind of project would make a difference. I'd certainly find it interesting, at least.
