Advice to a scared developer?

Any advice for someone (me) who is scared of coding questions 😨? I am trying hard to get grip of data structures but I can't understand stuff without a visual image inside my head, and in Java it's taking a toll on me

If you are scared of coding questions for an interview, you can find a lot of questions' list for interviews. Don't hesitate to read it and learn some responses. Don't hesitate to do some notes and/or schemas to help you to retain easily the information. (it's a good solution for a quick result)

Generally, like every other subject, you will be more confortable if you are more trained in this subject. So the more you will practice with Java/Spring, the more you will be confortable to answer questions.
If there is a particular subject you want to master, don't hesitate to check online for posts/videos/tutorials... Continuous learning is a primary key for a dev!

I hope it will help you! :)

I think its totally normal. Even I feel the same.
But with practicing it will scare less.

Just from few days I'm learning 1 data structure and picking few questions from leetcode and giving them 1 week to slove.
I think by doing so I can get better hold on that specific Data Structure.
