Projects to gain hands-on automation experience

If you’re trying to get hands-on experience with a project for automation and you’re not in a role that facilitates that, it can be pretty difficult or confusing to find projects to practice on.

The restful booker app springs to mind for me as an excellent place to start!

I was wondering if anyone else had other project suggestions for getting hands-on automation experience?
