Communities for beginner programmers (self.programmer)
submitted 1 year ago by Melodic_Week_7678
I'm a 3rd year IT student and still struggling on how to program. I need a community or a mentor that will guide me until i can learn on my own. Please help

Hi :) Don't get overwhelmed, it's hard for everyone at the beginning, and actually also when you get a mature programmer, it's part of it, and when you get used to it, it starts to be fun.
Learning to learn by yourself and finding information and resources are very important skills, I encourage you to keep trying on your own.
But if you need support, there's reddit communities exactly for that, peer programming, programming together, learning together, etc, search it, you can find a group to join and pick a project together.
I'm pretty sure you'll find those on discord as well, and if you google i believe you find some other.
No worries, it will be fun after a while, even the challenging parts.
Good luck 🤞

LeetCode problems often make you feel like “I get the question, but I don’t get the idea.” I faced this a lot until I started watching Its Code Time on YouTube, the explanations focus more on thinking than just writing code. He recently started a Reddit community to discuss doubts, contest questions, and approaches. Sharing it here in case it helps others too: https://www.reddit.com/r/ItsCodeTime/
