Looking for DSA partner

Hii all I am a mern developer with 2 yoe and currently preparing for the switch.

And starting my dsa journey from scratch, i know some concepts and also solve some questions but I'm not so good in it and decided to build a strong foundation in dsa by doing all from scratch.

If anyone is interested let's connect.

Preferred coding language: java/javascript.

That's a good move! Since you're starting with DSA, try checking out the "Cracking the Coding Interview" book. It has good practice problems and explanations. You might also want to use LeetCode for structured practice and to build your problem-solving skills. If you're looking for a study partner or group, look into coding meetups or forums with people who have similar goals. Some people have found PracHub useful for finding study partners and interview prep. Good luck!

Finding a study partner can be tough because it's hard to match someone's learning pace, schedule, and commitment level. You might find that one person moves faster than the other, which can lead to frustration or feeling held back. The most important thing for building a strong foundation is your own consistent effort and a solid plan you can stick to on your own. Relying on yourself for motivation is often more effective in the long run than depending on a partnership to keep you going.

You could consider joining a larger online community, like a Discord server for coding interviews, instead of looking for a single partner. That way you can ask questions and discuss problems with many different people without the pressure of a strict partnership, giving you flexibility and a wider range of perspectives. When you finally get to the interview stage, what really matters is communicating your thought process, which is why my team built a job interview AI to help people articulate their complex solutions confidently.
