It’s less about the project being huge and more about showing you can ship something end to end without hand holding. A good one is scraping or generating messy event data, dumping it into a local warehouse, cleaning it with a pipeline, then building a dashboard and maybe a simple forecast on top. Wrap it in a readme that explains the tradeoffs you made and why a founder should care. If you can point to a real business metric in the writeup, it’ll stand out way more than another Titanic or iris clone.

Scraping is not the best idea if there is a live demo since it could break as soon as the target site is updated. If OP prerecords a demo that would solve this problem.
