[YouTube Link:

Many successful founders started by creating gradebook software while they were still in school. They had access to teachers who were frustrated with the existing gradebook options. This provided them with valuable insight into a real-world problem. While many of these founders didn't remain in the education space, developing this software taught them valuable skills. Creating something tangible, even if it's just gradebook software, is a great way to learn. The key takeaway is to start creating and iterating. Building something impressive that users love, like a well-designed app or a clean code repository, speaks volumes about your abilities. This portfolio piece can outweigh the lack of traditional credentials and position you as a top player in your field.
