Concentrate on getting the better job. Mention your projects to potential employers - open-source the code on GitHub or GitLab.

It's great that you have written the projects, but: realize that there are dozens, hundreds, maybe thousands of similar apps out there. Unless you actively enjoy marketing, don't try to sell your apps.

Strongly agree that you should put them on GitHub with a decent README and try to get a job in the industry. Most applications seem to ask for a GitHub link. To be frank it’s hard to imagine the utilities to be worth any money if you have 0 professional experience. Maybe I’m wrong but compare them to some coding boot camp graduates GitHubs. They always have a very similar set of toy projects
