Oh gosh, emoji too? I'm already being told I'm a bot because of the way I write (I'm AuDHD) and now I can't even use emoji anymore 😭

Do you remember if they shared a repo for their project or what framework they used for the GUI?

As for ideas what to build, take an existing project that's been written in a language that needs setting up (Python, NodeJS) or isn't the best choice (Shell script, Perl) and rewrite it. You'll learn better how the original project works as well as your chosen language.

I am a Go zealot so take this with a grain of salt, but Go is a better* choice for most things: no worrying about memory, easier to write and read and much steep of a learning curve. Rust is more performant (cpu/memory) if you write it well but in most cases you won't need the edge it gives.

One source for learning Go that I've seen recommended often is github.com/quii/learn-g...

Have fun learning!

Have fun!
