The course you posted is missing many essential topics to FSWD. I don't recommend it as an introduction, but rather as an extension to your previous knowledge.
The next thing is that as a beginner, you should stay clear of frameworks. Frameworks come and go, but if you learn frameworks instead of the basics, you will always run behind everyone else, because you have to learn the framework whereas a vanilla developer just reads a few docs and gets started hacking. You might want to read this FAQ to get some answers ;)
I recommend taking a look at my old list of topics (Full-Stack 101) you definitely need for FSWD (it is rather tech-agnostic). I recommend starting with the higher-level topics, like programming a website on PHP and adding a SQL DB and then learning lower-level stuff (like reading HTTP RFCs) later on to get better optimization and feature levels :)
As for projects, try to create a portfolio homepage for yourself, where you present yourself and add any project you finish. Add a blog which automatically posts your new blog-entries to social media sites and communities (Twitter, Facebook, Hashnode, dev.to, HN, etc.)
