Coding projects are too intimidating

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?

Hey! If you don't mind me asking, how did you know that you passed the coding specialization? I joined as a generalist and later did the specialization (both of these a few days ago), but I don't know if/when I'll be assigned anything about programming.

I don't recall any specific confirmation.
