My path:

- then making small contributions
- then making bigger contributions
- then creating projects from scratch
The main takeaway: mentoring from experienced people
Things to do if you're out of ideas
- Watch the Testing in Rails lecture and apply what you learned in your final project or the AirBnB clone
- Do Backend-challenges
- Do Frontend-challenges
- Choose a language on exercism.org, do the challenges and document you're learning
- Convert book code samples examples to Ruby (or your favorite language)
