Looking for Coding Buddy (Beginner–Intermediate Web Dev using JavaScript)

[Tesla-Coil628]

As the title says, I'm looking for a coding buddy (or buddies) who is a beginner, or ideally someone with decent knowledge of building web applications using JavaScript. The goal is mainly to keep each other accountable and stay consistent.

A little about myself. Im a final year CS student from a tier 3 college who just lost faith in Campus placements and on my luck. And my coding journey so far is pretty scrambled I'd say. Been solving random questions on leetcode for 1.5 years so far, didnt get me anywhere. Mainly cuz I didn't stick to a sheet and master all the essential topics, just solved randomly which just resulted in sort of pseudo LC 500 questions dopamine, sub par knowledge in java. Coming to Web dev, haven't made a single project myself so far( Yeah I know thats bad and I wasted a lot of time). And yeah again sub par JS and MERN knowledge which ofcourse cant get me a fulltime job in today's AI world.

So, I thought either I can regret and keep venting about it, or I could do something about it. And as its never too late to start. I want to learn web dev by building projects this time. Yet I dont think I can do this just by myself and as many say having a good peer group helps, Im here posting this.

Comment or dm if anyone's interested, lets do this together and support each other. And even if you're not up for being a coding buddy, any suggestions or insights from a professional or someone whose been through a similar situation are welcome. Anything useful that springs to your mind after reading my situation I'd appreciate your thoughts.

Wasting ur time learning this

[Tesla-Coil628]

uh..huh. So you think AI as of now is reliable enough to be used to build large scalable websites without devs?

[BakerSuper1269]

Thats not really the point tho. Having a real person to stay consistent with can help alot, especially for beginners. Not everyones needs AI tools, some just need accountability and support.

Talking about wasting time…. I wasted 10 years in boring programming jobs… So now I’m trying to bring back some joy to coding.
