Have you ever spent many hours on working tasks that you feel bored and… non -productive? I got it completely.
We are all there, clicking through the same folders, renaming the files, copying data between applications, and much more. But you can automate most of these boring things with azer.
I have collected a handful of practical projects that can help make the minds automatically make that we all face. Everyone is designed to solve a real problem that you face every day.
Let’s start.
1. Automatic File Organizer
Why is it useful: We are all there. Downloading files for months until your desktop or download folder becomes a place of archaeological excavation of documents, photos and videos.
What to build: Create a script that monitors a folder (such as your download directory) and automatically configure files into the appropriate sub -folders based on their type.
Features to add:
- Auto category by file type (documents, photos, videos, etc.)
- Customs rules for specific files (such as bills to configure in a “finance” folder)
- Scheduled runs or when a certain number of files are deposited at stipulated times
- Optional notification when files are moved
Such an easy script can save you 20-30 minutes of manual organization every week.
2. Email Report Generator
Why is it useful: If you regularly compile and send data reports via email, this automation can substantially reduce the burden of your work.
What to build: Prepare a script that draws data from a source (spreadsheet, database, or API), produces a report, and emailed it to the schedule’s prepaid list of recipients.
Features to add:
- Contact your data source (CSV files, Excel, SQL Database)
- Report breeds with calculations and concepts
- Email composition with acceptable formatting
- Scheduleing functionality (daily, weekly, monthly)
- Error to handle for data problems or email failures
This project turns into a weekly task of 1-2 hours in what happens automatically when you focus on more important work.
3. Website change monitors
Why is it useful: Never find yourself checking a website for frequent prices, news, or availability of availability? This automation takes to look for you.
What to build: Make a script that monitors specific websites of changes and alerts when you appear new.
Features to add:
- Web page scraping functionality
- Comparison logic to detect meaningful changes
- Filtering to ignore irrelevant updates
- Notification options (email, text, desktop alerts)
- Schedule checking at appropriate intervals
This can be great to keep pricing drops on the product, monitoring of job boards, or keeping tabs on important announcements without refreshing pages.
4. Schedule of social media content
Why is it useful: It is important to maintain a permanent presence of social media, but when done manually, there is an incredibly time.
What to build: Create a script that makes the content system scheduled and posts in a number of social platforms from one source.
Features to add:
- Social Media APIS
- Material calendar management
- Image and text processing for different platform requirements
- Scheduling based on maximum posting times
- Performance tracking and reporting
By selling the creation of your content and handling the posting schedule to the Azgar, you can maintain a permanent online presence without grinding daily. However, do not let the content be prepared for you. It is Your Opinions and insights that are important.
5. Data Entry Automometer
Why is it useful: Manual data registration is probably the most boring work in any office environment.
What to build: Prepare a script that extracts information from various sources (emails, documents, form) and enters it into your desired systems.
Features to add:
- Analysis from documents PDF, emails, or web form
- Data verification and cleaning
- Integration with a database or spreadsheet
- Reporting error for human review when necessary
- Processing row for batch operations
This automation can help change super boring hours and paste into the background process.
6. Automatic backup system
Why is it useful: Regular backups are very important, but it is difficult to remember to perform them permanently.
What to build: Create a comprehensive backup script that preserves your main files on a regular schedule.
Features to add:
- Copting the selected file on the basis of importance
- Compression to save space
- Extra backups to capture what has changed
- Multiple destination support (local drives, cloud storage)
- The confirmation is complete and accessible to ensure
This project provides mental comfort that comes from knowing your important files, is always safe, without remembering the backup process manually.
7. Meeting notice processor
Why is it useful: It is important to take notes during the meetings, but due to time obstacles, it is often ignored to organize and share them.
What to build: Make a script that takes action on your raw meeting notes, cleaned them, remove action items, and divide it into participants.
Features to add:
