Anyone wanna be friends and upskill/learn/grow together?

Upvotes

Hello people, you might relate - having a dream in your mind, but unable to progress after 20% since you might not someone to tell you that you're on the right track (if you know the path), or you feel alone on the path (peers trying to secretly pull you down).

I've felt that too.

I feel we can fix this - We can help each other stay on track, motivated and achieve our goals. In case you don't know a track - that's alright, we can discuss and work one out together (I used to mentor juniors on a mass scale during my college days - miss those times now).

I'm a Tier-1 electronics engineer with good knowledge of computer science and finance. Currently \~2YOE in Java, Springboot, Oracle and Cloud. I'm focusing on DSA right now since that's my weak point.

Feel free to connect with me regarding anything - guidance, if you wanna grow/learn together, just share/exchange experiences or have any hobbies in common too (I go to gym. I play chess, badminton, table tennis, cricket, football and rubiks cube. I listen to music of all kinds, and read non fiction books).

LOOKING FOR BUDDIES [GMT+8] Looking for a programming study buddy

Upvotes

Hi! I'm looking for a programming study buddy.

Timezone: GMT+8 (Philippines)

Stack: JavaScript/TypeScript, PHP, Python, SQL, HTML/CSS

Experience: Junior developer with experience building personal, academic, and practical projects.

Goal: I want to improve my understanding of how to design and build software that is scalable, maintainable, and easier to work with as projects grow.

I'm particularly interested in learning more about software architecture, maintainable code, design patterns, testing, system design, and general best practices beyond just making an application work.

I'm open to studying together, sharing resources, discussing how we approach problems, reviewing each other's projects/code, building projects, or doing coding challenges.

I'm also open to connecting with people using different tech stacks since I'm more interested in improving my overall software engineering mindset.

No need to be at the exact same experience level and just looking for someone genuinely interested in learning and improving consistently.

Feel free to comment or send me a Reddit DM if interested!

LOOKING FOR MENTOR Looking for a Python mentor / study buddy

Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I’m a college student and I’m currently trying to learn Python seriously. I have some basic exposure, but I want to build my fundamentals properly instead of just following tutorials and copying code.

I’m looking for someone who is experienced with Python and would be willing to guide me while I learn.

What I’m looking for:

- Someone who can explain concepts when I’m stuck

- Give me problems/exercises and let me figure them out myself

- Review my code and tell me what I’m doing wrong

- Help me develop problem solving skills

- Gradually guide me towards projects

- Ideally, someone who can check in with me regularly so I stay consistent

I’m not looking for someone to do my assignments/projects for me. I genuinely want to become independent and understand what I’m doing.

My long-term interest is Bioinformatics, Data Science, ML, so I want to eventually use Python in those areas.

I’m based in IST (UTC+5:30), but I’m open to connecting with people from other time zones too.

If you’re an experienced Python developer, mentor, or even someone who is learning at a higher level and enjoys helping beginners, please DM me.

I’m willing to put in the effort. I just want the right guidance and learning direction. :)

Upvotes

​

I'm looking for some peer interested to learn patterns in graphs with me. Open for anyone with interest.

I practice in the evening from 9 to 10 pm.

We can solve our own problems and just ping each other

or if needed we can connect & solve same or different problems and discuss solution among overselves, try optimizing it, thus improving each other.

Have just started with dfs, bfs.

DM if any one is interested, will plan a sheet and follow if needed. Later we can take up other patterns too.

Looking for a MERN Study Partner / Accountability Buddy

Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I'm a final-year Computer Science student graduating in 2027. My goal is to get a job after graduation, and I'm currently learning the MERN stack.

The problem is that I'm struggling with consistency while learning alone. I feel like having someone at a similar level would help with accountability, motivation, and discussing doubts/projects together.

I'm looking for a study partner who is also learning web development/MERN and is serious about improving consistently. We can set goals, share progress, work on projects, and help each other stay accountable.

If anyone is in a similar situation, feel free to comment or DM me. :)

Hey, I am a final year computer science student and I have to get a job in 2027 (off campus obviously) but i am not consistent while learning alone. I am trying to learn MERN (I know it's too late for a final year student). Also I'm doing MERN because I'm confused. I think I need guidance or a study partner who is at the same level as me. Guys suggest something what should I do.....

Beginner coders — anyone interested in building projects together?

Upvotes

Hey everyone 👋

I’m starting a small coding group called ARRAYS for people who are learning programming and want to actually build things together.

The idea is pretty simple: learn from each other, work on real projects, and gradually go from small beginner projects to useful websites and apps.

You don't need to be experienced. Most of us are still learning. I'm mainly looking for people who are willing to learn, contribute, and stick with a project.

If you're also learning to code and this sounds interesting, comment below and tell me what you're currently learning.

Would be cool to find some people who want to build together.

Looking to Collaborate on Backend and Enterprise Projects

Upvotes

Hello everyone,

I’m currently working at a startup based out in USA, but the technology stack is different from my primary area of expertise. I have been coding in Java for a long time, and I’m looking for opportunities to collaborate on enterprise-level projects.

I primarily work in backend development, building REST APIs and backend services. I can contribute a couple of hours every day. I’m most comfortable with Java and Spring Boot, but I’m also open to Python projects using Flask or FastAPI.

My goal is to keep my skills sharp, gain practical experience, and learn through collaboration. If you’re building a project and looking for someone to work and learn with, I would be excited to connect. Let’s make the process enjoyable and build something meaningful together!

Thanks,

LOOKING FOR BUDDIES Learn and build together via projects?

Upvotes

Thinking of building projects in a group, could be duo/trio or more while we learn as we progress through our project. As of now, i don't have any specific project idea in my mind but we'll be discussing together. The vision is to make something useful while we learn new tools, new stack, or basically improve.

Mind that this won't go like:

  1. Project Idea

  2. Vibe Code with zero understanding

  3. Final product

However, i'm not saying we're forbidden to use ai and be ancient but we'll basically go through each process thoroughly with deep understanding of the workflow.

My background is currently web dev (beginnerish) but open to explore new and different fields.

*Serious learners/builders if possible*

STUDY PARTNER Mock interview buddy?

Upvotes

Hey
I’m a new grad, and trying to find a mock interview buddy. I have around 1.5 years of experience working part time during uni.

My goal is to try to do mock interviews once a week at least until we both find jobs

A couple of notes:

- I mainly code in C/C++ and sometimes Python.

- I have a preference for low-level and/or C++ roles (so I have a preference for questions that emphasize low level concepts), but open to other roles. We can also practice for OAs together (I’m prepping for Amazon SDE 1 on the side).

- I’m advanced: I’ve already done all the popular lists. I’ve had plenty of interviews as well (advanced to the last stages but things fell short because of HC issues :/). I have a preference for people who already mastered the basics (blind 75/nc150), and aren’t learning but rather practicing deliberately. But if you’re a beginner that’s okay too as long as you’re willing to put in the work.

- My timezone is GMT+3, I don’t have a timezone preference on the condition that you’re just as willing to work around my timezone.

- If you have a gender preference, note that I’m a woman.

let’s talk if you think we have similar goals
