🐍 Python-Focused Beginner Project Ideas
1. Student Management System (Console-Based)
Description: Add, search, and delete student records (name, roll
no, marks).
Python Topics Used: File handling, dictionaries, functions
Optional C/C++ Add-on: Use a C++ backend to handle file
operations faster.
2. Quiz Game App
Description: Multiple-choice quiz game where user answers and
scores are shown.
Python Concepts: Functions, lists, conditional statements
Optional Add-on: Connect to a JSON file or database for questions.
3. Basic Calculator (GUI using Tkinter)
Description: GUI-based calculator that performs +, -, *, /
Python Concepts: Tkinter GUI, event handling
Optional in C: Build core calculation logic in C and link via Python’s
ctypes.
4. Weather App using API
Description: Enter city name and get current weather.
Tools: Python + OpenWeatherMap API + JSON
Skills: API handling, JSON parsing, GUI (optional)
5. Simple File Encryptor/Decryptor
Description: Encrypt and decrypt text files using a basic algorithm
(Caesar cipher or XOR).
Python Concepts: File handling, string manipulation
Optional in C: Use C to write the encryption logic and call it from
Python.
6. To-Do List App (Console or GUI)
Python Modules: Tkinter or just CLI
Concepts: Lists, file handling, classes (OOP)
Learning Benefit: Practice of CRUD operations in Python
7. Face Detection Using OpenCV
