This is super open ended, but what are you all currently struggling with? Doesn't have to be code related. We're more than our jobs.
I won't have answers to everything, probably lots of things, but others in the community might be able to help.

I am struggling with leetcode problems and have the feeling that I am not good fit in the field I have this horrible feeling so I am struggling to defeat it💔
I am currently struggling with how to build a developer brand for myself?
Like, how do I get a position on certain events, live streams or how can I be a meaningful contributor to an open source project.
I've been struggling to get my Portfolio into a place where I'm okay with it (using Zola), design-wise. I've solved some some of my first "real world problems with it, which is another big thing I've struggled with. I struggle with getting over burnout and also getting over imposter syndrome and building something that can be used by others.
I want to work in open source projects, but idk how or where to start...
not code related, im struggling to be consistent on something.
e.g studying something, then doing a streak for a week. then take a one day rest and motivation is nowhere again
I have been struggling for almost a week with an ECS managed by terraform, I was fighting with the EC2 instances and the availability for the cluster, they never were elegible nor healthy. The solution was simple but not trivial, I needed to launch my machines with an Ami prepared to be an ECS node, not the standard aws Linux 2.
Impostor syndrome’ it’s a killer!
But it comes in waves.
Learning Rust. It's an awesome language and I'm loving it so far! But it feels really different to any other language
Yeah it's definitely interesting. If you haven't used a typed language before, there's that, and there's also concepts like ownership which might be hard to wrap your head around. I do like the pattern matching.
Trying to get Heroku to work
I'm currently struggling with the path I should take, I'm interested in backend, and I'm currently learning JavaScript with the hopes of learning nodeJs when I'm done with JavaScript but I'm not sure if that would be all I will need to be a qualified junior backend software dev, anybody has any ideas or tips on the path I should take after learning JavaScript and nodeJs??
You'll very likely be learning JavaScript and NodeJS for a while so there may be no 'after'.
You should pick up and learn your database technologies really well along the side - SQL, NoSQL. Afterwards, you should learn a bit of infrastructure and deployment.
Also, if you're trying to learn just backend without doing anything frontend, I won't advise that. You don't have to be really good at it, but you should know enough frontends to get things done before you move to backend.
For the front-end, I learnt the basics of HTML and CSS already, and I create some basic projects with them, nothing really too deep tho.
