Final Projects Ideas

Hello everyone, I am a final year student of Software Engineering planning to do a final year project. But, I have no idea what type of software I will be developing. I am thinking of using Laravel. I want something unique and different​. Please enlighten me.

Thank you for your help in advance.

What type of focus interests you? Social, business, other?

Hrm, something unique then. Let's roll the random noun generator...

I get...

  • Battleship
  • Bungalow
  • Endothelium
  • Hawk
  • Indication
  • Machinery
  • Osprey
  • Particle
  • Pyramid
  • Roadway

Oh, I know, let's make a bird watchers app. People can lookup birds, discuss them, and track the locations of sighted birds.

Complex but it offers 3 core features:

  • Database for birds (grab some reference books from the Audubon society)
  • A social platform (the forum above or something simpler w/ just social media integration?)
  • An integration w/ Google API for tracking bird sightings

@ALSAKKAF - And hey, if it turns out very well and you make it an official product for the public w/ subscriptions and everything could I get a free lifetime account? whistles innocently

I have a few ideas for your project. Create a downtime alarm (an application connected to the Twilio API for sending text messages). Create an application that accepts a URL as input and sends you a text message when a request to the URL returns a different response code than 200 (OK). Or try encryption (any programming language you want to work on). Create a tool that accepts a text string as input and encrypts it, for example, using a Caesar cipher. There may be more ideas, just fantasize. I can only add that you can always find assistance and a solution to your problem on various online resources (for example, GitHub, CodeProject), or ask a question directly here in the appropriate topic.
