Imposter syndrome is really common among software developers. I've suffered from imposter syndrome myself. There are a lot of different skills and knowledge required to be a good software developer, and it can be easy to feel like you're not good enough when you compare yourself to others.
In this video, I cover my experience with imposter syndrome and some tips on how to overcome it.
