"and it feels like everything I've been doing as a developer so far is some sort of shenanigans that I've managed to pull off somehow."
This is so resonates with me right now and the fact that I'm a fresher who has just started makes it even worse.
I feel I haven't done or achieved anything worthwhile and that troubles me.

Seems like you've got a pretty solid CS foundation to grow from, which is an achievement in itself, if you ask me :)

Would you consider showing off some of the things you've built?

Yeah here's my github.com/agarwal-akash . Out of these, the one I enjoyed making the most was Bon Appétit. An app to prevent wastage of leftover food, by broadcasting the real-time location/info of leftover food from parties and weddings etc. NGO's and other interested volunteers can then see this info on the map and contact the donor's.

I feel the the same way, I have been programming for 15 years, about 5 years ago moved from VBA to VB.net and maybe 2 years ago to C# and I feel like every day I haven’t a clue what I am doing and google things all the time. And now I am getting a Jr Dev the will be working with me. So now I have something else to work out.
