If you dont want to be too ambitious and test the waters, try to join a cool project that starting and see if you can contribute with unit tests, documentation, fix issues. Look at Github, each project has a list of issues. Browse them. Of course, some projects like the LLVM suite is humongous and advanced but there are several others that are not. I work in some repos that need help.
Maybe an ide like these guys are trying to make but for all platforms https://github.com/CodeEditApp/CodeEdit
Just yesterday I did that https://github.com/jurplel/qView/issues/516
Have you explored programming websites such as adventofcode.com? Each year starts pretty easy but gets tough quick. They all have different themes running through them and sometimes puzzles will build on solutions to previous puzzles so there's a bit of library building experience in there as well. At the end of the month you'll have a pretty sizable chunk of code to put up on github and ideas for what to explore next if any of the puzzles were interesting.
