I’m entering my final year of college and realized I’ve made a big mistake — I never really learned programming properly, and I’ve never built a real-world project. Now with graduation and placements close, I’m wondering if it’s still possible to learn fast, build meaningful projects, and get job-ready.

Something else I keep thinking about: Would it make sense to have a platform where students could:

buy projects to learn from,

get mentorship/teaching to understand them deeply,

and eventually sell their own projects once they gain skills?

I’m curious what the HN community thinks:

Is it still possible for someone like me to turn things around?

And would such a platform actually be useful, or is it solving the wrong problem?
