Hey everyone welcome again to the new blog and I don't want to repeat all those things, So let's get started:
As you all know If you want to become a web developer or a software developer you need to practice & make a good amount of projects.
Many people just watch tons of videos or courses or some lecture videos on any platform.
But the major thing that every learner does not do is making projects by applying those things that they have learned during courses.
So here I am providing a list of some of the best Beginner-friendly React.js or you can also make this using Next.js or whichever Framework that you prefer.
All these projects are very basic and beginner projects, so if you are a beginner and just started to learn Web development or learning from 2&3 months then these projects will be very ideal for you as practice projects.
Here is the list of those projects:

As React.js is especially for creating UI/UX so you should focus on that as well. Try to implement good CSS and also include some animations in the project if you can. You can also use React animation package or Library.
React.js Examples Project Google Homepage Design
