As a developer, building projects is one of the best ways to stay sharp, learn new skills and technology, and building projects to add to your portfolio if you are looking for work. Many developers work on personal projects, some fun and some they never finish (trust me, there are endless memes on this).
I have been building something simple; a tool that takes a piece of text and then replaces specific words in it (keywords) with specific links. You can then copy the raw HTML and dump it into any CMS and have that text already have the links included.
I know text editors and word processors can do something similar, but they mess up the text when you copy it due to the format they use. Also, you have to find the keywords and then turn them into links using something like CTRL+K and have to do the same for each word or keyword you want to replace.
It's a simple project, but I have use cases for it and love how simple it makes replacing multiple/numerous keywords at once with links.
So, are you working on any personal projects? Let's see them below!
