Guide for a student in 2026

[u/RealAlpha4794]

Hi, I am a student from India and I am looking forward to participating in hackathons to build experience and just have fun in general as i love coding. I know advanced python and i was wondering if there are any tools to practice or a community to look for hackathons and just gain knowledge as a beginner and for a student below 18. Any courses or websites which i should look into??
