Describe your suggestion

I think that graphs are a structure that are very much swept under the rug in the current iteration of KT.

The linked list and hashmap projects have you define a class that can be used to instantiate and work with a structure, but apply no "real world" context to it. I think this makes you think abstractly about what you're representing and how.

Then you get to KT, where graphs are introduced more like an aside to the specific knight problem, and so learners aren't thinking about using a graph to solve a problem, they're thinking about a horse and trying to figure out what a graph has to do with it.

I think it could be really beneficial to make an abstract graph project, which can have the learner make a class, give it some methods and such. Then after that you can have the KT project, and the hint at the top that you will need to use a graph is much more meaningful - and serves as an example of how these abstract structures could solve a 'real' problem

I'd be up for working on this but to make it at reasonable quality is unlikely to be a speedy process
