I've found great success in taking my coding skills and applying it to other hobbies. For example:

- I built a nutrition app during the pandemic so I could learn more about nutrition and track my activity.

- I started practicing Qi Gong and Yoga and I hacked together a little handheld controller so that I could learn the movements more efficiently. I used it to rewind/fast forward, A/B repeat sections, speed up/slow down, etc.

- I built a trail companion app for a backpacking trip that helped me plan my hikes.

- I made an app for my grandma to share photos with her on her Kindle device.

I think when you apply coding to other things you're passionate about it brings new life to it.
