I shared a story about a project I took on during a hackathon where I had to build a real-time stock price tracker using React and Node.js. I spoke candidly about how I struggled to get the live data feed working smoothly, as my understanding of WebSockets was limited.

The interviewer looked intrigued and asked about the specific tools I used, which led to a deep dive into the technical challenges I faced. However, I hesitated when discussing my debugging process, which might have come off as indecisive.

Overall, I felt I showcased my ability to tackle obstacles but could have articulated my thought process more clearly.
