Today I want to put the spotlight on some Youtube channels that might help you in your web developer journey. When starting as a web developer, finding time to learn can be challenging. The following list hopefully provides some orientation and saves you some time.

Learn Web Development

I have not done a full course by myself, but I tuned in in some videos of Web Dev Simplified and his learning tracks might be what you need. He offers a Full Stack Web Dev Course including videos such as “How The Backend Works“, “What is REST?” and “MVC Explained in 4 Minutes“.

HTML & CSS

I can only point out Kevin Powell’s channel. Kevin is a sympathic creator and offers a variety of content. He focuses on CSS, which comes along with HTML. Tracks I can recommend for a start:

Stay up to Date in the Webdev World

The web is moving fast. New frameworks are around every corner and browers are also subject to constant changes and updates. The following channels are channels I consume to stay up to date:

  • Chrome for Developers: what’s new in the web and in the Chrome Dev Tools
  • HTTP 203 videos: topics are explored in dialog format
  • Fireship: coding tutorials & a neat “xyz in 100 seconds” format
  • Awesome: monthly news, first impressions on hyped topics and a useful “xyz explained in 5 minutes” format
