Therefore, we present to you 5 web programming project ideas that will both strengthen your CV and improve your knowledge.
1) Registration form - Form validation
It is very rare to find web projects without a registration form. One of the tasks that programmers often encounter in their daily activities is related to this form. Although it looks simple, it is an interesting and complex task because several "if", "else", "for" combinations are used.
In addition to these, during the verification (validation), which is part of the registration process, matching of passwords, use of uppercase letters and numbers, notification of "this name has been used" if the username is in the database are considered to be the main functions of the task.

The fact that Javascript works perfectly not only on the front-end but also on the server-side and the fact that programmers can use it is very attractive for IT companies these days. With Javascript's React JS library, you can create a chat app and add it to your portfolio. Additionally, you can transfer data to the database using the Node.js open library.
3) Weather APP - Weather APP, where you can use API
