# Divide-By-0/ideas-for-projects-people-would-use

Every time I have an idea, I write it down. These are a collection of my top software ideas -- problems I think enough people have that don't have solutions. I expect you can reach a decent userbase if marketed correctly, as I am surely not the only one with these problems.

A curated awesome-list of roughly 100 software project ideas that the author believes solve unsolved, widely-felt problems. It includes bounty funding for open-source implementations and covers apps, web apps, and Chrome extensions.

## When to choose
- you want motivation for a side project with a real userbase
- you need a hackathon or learning project idea
- you want to build something open source with a small cash bounty

## When to avoid
- you need working software rather than ideas
