If you were to start a web project today, what would you choose to build and why?

If I were to start a web project from scratch today, I would choose to build a "Personalized Learning Path Planner."

This might sound a bit complex, but the idea is actually quite simple.

Imagine you suddenly want to learn something new, like "data analysis with Excel," "how to start a podcast," or "how to get started with personal finance." The first thing you usually do is search online. Then the problem arises: you'll find thousands of articles, video tutorials, and online course advertisements – an overwhelming explosion of information.

You have no idea where to start, which tutorial is best for a beginner like you, or what the correct learning sequence should be. Many people are deterred by this "information overload" right from the beginning, collecting a huge amount of resources that they never open again.

My project aims to solve this very problem.

It would act like an experienced personal coach. You just need to tell it:

1. What do you want to learn? (e.g., I want to learn photography)
2. What is your current skill level? (e.g., I just bought a camera, I'm a complete beginner)
3. What is your goal? (e.g., I want to be able to take beautiful landscape photos when I travel and share them on social media)

Then, the website would use AI to automatically generate a clear, step-by-step learning plan for you. It wouldn't create content itself, but rather crawl and filter the highest quality, free resources from across the web (such as the best introductory videos on Bilibili, the most insightful articles on Zhihu, or blogs written by experts abroad). It would then arrange these resources in a logical sequence, like building with LEGO bricks.

Your learning path might look something like this:

• Week 1: Get to know your camera.
  • Watch a 15-minute video to understand aperture, shutter speed, and ISO.
  • Read an article on basic composition rules.
  • This week's assignment: Take 10 photos at home, practicing adjusting different settings.
• Week 2: Using light.
  • Watch a video tutorial on natural light.
  • ...

It breaks down the complex learning process into easily manageable small tasks, so you know what to do every day and can clearly see your progress.

Why choose this project?

1. Solves a real pain point: In this era, what's most lacking isn't information, but the ability to filter information and plan a path. This tool can save people a lot of time and energy, preventing them from "starting strong but giving up quickly."
2. Large market: Everyone has a need to learn new knowledge and improve themselves, whether for work or hobbies. This is an eternal demand.
3. Room for imagination: Initially, it can attract users with a freemium model, such as generating basic paths for free. Later, it can offer deeper services, such as connecting with human mentors for guidance, organizing learning communities, or providing employee training solutions for businesses. The business model is very flexible.
4. Technically feasible: Today, AI capabilities make this kind of information integration and personalized recommendation much easier to achieve than before.

In summary, it's not about creating new knowledge, but about being a "navigator" of knowledge. In an era of information overload, providing a service that helps people clarify their thoughts and point them in the right direction would be incredibly valuable.
