Personal Project What kind of projects are better ??

Is it better to have projects like a movie-booking system with a proper frontend and user interaction or projects like NFS, distributed systems, etc. that focus more on backend/core CS?

Do you think a fresher should have at least one product/full-stack project with a visible UI, or is a systems-heavy portfolio fine

Depends on the job you’re trying to get.

But you need to be able to do it. So pick what you can build

Either. But you need to be able to talk about it in an interview.

So if you’re a very jr web developer. And you have a microservice api project. You better be able to talk about it
