Alternative concepts for your portfolio projects are out of the question. So it's best to start with some product-based applications that you're interested in and utilize them as portfolio projects before applying for projects on freelancer portals.

Do something real world that you can partner up with a marketer and make some $.

For example can you create a framework to scrape data?

If so build an app that does that and lets the user access and search a database in return for a fee.

You can use management software or CRM applications to complete any job. There are numerous concepts to choose from.

Because you're a Django developer, I believe you're proficient in Python. You can also develop a series of your own projects with Python.

For example, simple web applications are highly popular these days; please find the URL for your reference, this is simply for reference; I do not recommend doing this!!

Why not! While it is a simple product, the end user adored it. Wordle is a popular game right now. As a result, I believe that these kind of items will be successful.

Also, instead of focusing on a basic project, please concentrate on your zone (python) with creative projects,
