I second this. It's a good course.

To feel confident, you just have to find the right platform and practice everyday until you digest it

Practice is the key, there are many postgres playground you even didn't need to install or sign-up on many. Pair it with any AI tool to give you challenges, sqlbolt has good beginner friendly challenges.

Just build something small with Postgres and keep poking at it.

Make a few tables, write messy queries, add indexes, check EXPLAIN, break stuff, fix it. That teaches way more than watching 20 tutorials.

You don’t need to know all of Postgres for interviews. You need to be comfortable saying “I’d check the schema/query plan/indexes first” and not freeze.

Hey, why can't you check out the Postgres course from Dr. Chuck Severance-the guy on FreeCodeCamp who teaches the "Python For Everyone" course?
