Building your own projects is the single best way to improve and reinforce your development skills. But, often, it's hard to know what to build or where to even start.

In this episode, we talk about how to generate ideas for side projects, and how to find the motivation to complete them. We'll talk about why projects are important, why not to do projects, and Peter's simple framework for finding ideas.
