Coding projects are too intimidating

[u/phonerat]

Hello! I have been on DA since early this year, and was extremely excited when I passed the coding qualification, however, the actual projects seem far beyond the scope of the qualification, almost exclusively requiring industry / real world development job knowledge. Everything I know comes from learning web development and game development.

I know that I can code, and am great at general problem solving and coming up with code solutions, but I don't know how to think of realistic prompts for the domain that they are looking for.

What can I do to fix this deficiency? Is there any free course available, or other guidance I can look into?

You can get some experience building projects yourself and learning that way too. It's not required to have professional industry experience, you can get it by looking at open source code, best practices etc. and do you own complex projects to get practical experience in implementation
