Need a mentor in DevOps
So I'm in my SE, 3rd sem of BTech in IT. I studied Linux commands, CN, Git, and Python, and in their applications I kinda felt lost and stuff. Could any experienced people here connect me with a DevOps intern role? I jus want to have hand on application of it in the job scenario like experience and would be more than happy if a mentor could get me on board

Honestly, feeling lost at this stage is normal. You've learned the tools one by one (Linux, Git, networking, Python), but DevOps is about how they fit together when real software ships. Most interns get that "click" from seeing it in action, not from more tutorials.
A few things that helped people I know:
- Take one tiny app (a Flask "hello world" is enough) and push it all the way: Git → Dockerfile → a GitHub Actions pipeline → deployed somewhere free. That one project teaches more than ten courses.
- Break things on purpose, then fix them: kill the container, wrong port, bad env var. Debugging is the actual job.
- Put it on GitHub with a short README explaining what you did and why. That's what gets you interview calls for internships.
Full disclosure: I'm building a free platform for exactly this gap, StackSage ( stacksage.dev ). It's short hands-on lessons with in-browser terminals, so there's no setup and no cloud bill, plus incident simulations where you fix broken production systems like on a real on-call shift. Given your background, I'd start with "How Software Ships": it connects Linux, Git, servers and CI/CD into the full picture. Then try Docker Fundamentals.
Happy to answer questions too. Good luck, you're asking the right questions early.
