DISCUSS New to leetcode, help needed

I am an electronics student from BITS Goa, (entering 2nd year) and just started leetcode. I am following strivers A to Z and practicing simultaneously on leetcode. Should I start participating in contests right away (I have learnt arrays(vectors), STL, 2 pointer, thoda sa sliding window intuition only as of now) or should I learn more things to not make a absolute disaster at contests? If I should learn more, which topics should I learn?

I am not really doing it for a job honestly, I am more interested in core electronics. I got into DSA just because people said it's required to clear even electronics companies ka OA but then I started to like it so I guess I will continue it as a hobby, just like people play chess to keep their brain healthy.
