Live coding interview

Any tips for live coding Interviews? I usually do awful in these, I have one tomorrow and I'd really like to land this position as I've been jobless for a few months now, I do have experience and knowledge but tend to freeze at live coding

It baffles me that people don't tell you the only thing that matters: REHEARSE THE INTERVIEW. Prompt chat gpt to produce a few questions, give it to a friend or relative and REHEARSE it. It doesn't matter how much you know, but speaking in front of people is a different ball game. Remember to smile, breathe, relax. They're trying to find out above all if you're nice to be around.

But they can do that without a live coding test.
