💡 [Feature]: Add Project Difficulty Classification & Guided Learning Paths

[Harini-2811]

❓ Problem Statement

Currently, users can browse Python mini-projects, but there is no clear indication of the difficulty level or the recommended order in which projects should be completed. Beginners may find it challenging to identify suitable projects, while intermediate learners may struggle to discover the next logical project to build upon their existing skills.

🚀 Proposed Enhancement

Introduce a Project Difficulty Classification and Learning Path System that categorizes projects into Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced levels. Additionally, provide curated learning paths that guide users through projects in a structured progression based on their skill level.

🛠️ Suggested Implementation

• Add a difficulty attribute (Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced) to project metadata.

• Display difficulty badges on project cards and project detail pages.

• Implement a difficulty-based filter to help users discover projects suitable for their current skill level.

• Create predefined learning paths using existing projects, such as:

  • Beginner Path
  • Intermediate Path
  • Advanced Path

• Show prerequisites or recommended concepts for selected projects where applicable.

• Ensure the feature is fully responsive and consistent with the current UI design.

Hi @steam-bell-92,

I would like to work on this issue under GSSoC'26.

My approach would be:

• Analyze the existing project data structure and introduce a scalable difficulty classification system (Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced).
• Add visually consistent difficulty badges to project cards and detail pages for quick identification.
• Implement a difficulty-based filtering mechanism to improve project discoverability.
• Design and integrate guided learning paths that organize existing projects into structured beginner-to-advanced roadmaps.
• Ensure the feature remains fully responsive and blends seamlessly with the current UI/UX.
• Test the functionality across different screen sizes and verify that the new filters and learning paths work smoothly with existing features.

This enhancement will help users choose projects according to their skill level and provide a more structured learning experience.

Kindly assign this issue to me. Thank you!
