Fri 30 Aug : For your IA which counts 20% HL or 30% SL you need to create a product which solves a problem using code.

I would recommend making a product which has a GUI using Python 3 and Tkinter.

The IA will be introduced before Easter next year; however, we need to constantly work on improving your coding skills.
