I've compiled a list of personal favorite devs on YouTube.
 I've added a couple of lines on each channel too, so it's easier to get what channel is about and why I included it. Enjoy! 1. Traversy Media Lots of awesome crash-courses on various tech. Usually follows 20/80 rule on theory and practical side respectively. Lately some awesome guest hosts on the channel. 2. The Net Ninja High-quality content in various technologies cut down in short videos on a particular topic. Awesome playlists. 3. Academind Wide range of tech topics. The content is always well researched. Well-thought-out presentation with examples. 4. Ben Awad Open thoughts on various topics (not necessarily direct coding-related always). Knows his stuff and a nice touch of humor here and there. 5. Clever Programmer Great videos on languages, tools, practices, tips to become a developer. Lately a lot of live coding on the channel. 6. Coding Garden Lots of live coding there, with live viewer interaction in the chat. Will answer your questions when possible. Might be fast-paced at times. 7. Web Dev Simplified High-quality content. Topics are deep researched and the content is well-thought-out and easy to follow. 8. Computerphile A must-have if you are in computers in general. A closer look at how things work, what's happening behind the scenes, and more. 9. Fireship Modern and cutting edge technologies. Awesome visuals and concise information. Quality content overall. 10. Florin Pop Likes challenges, like doing X projects in X amount of time. Lot's of live coding mixed with separate videos on specific topics. 11. freeCodeCamp Best place for full-length tutorials (often 8 hours +).

Javascript Mastery A must-have for full-stack JS engineers. Lots of awesome projects focusing on both sides of the stack and how to deploy them. 14. TechLead Ex-Google and Ex-Facebook engineer on various topics. Surely knows his stuff, tho, if you are a beginner, you might have trouble deciding whether he is for real or trolling at times. 15. Joma Tech Quality, well-edited content. Similar to TechLead, but generally more artistic and movie-like. Likes to put an Easter-egg here and there too. 16. CS Dojo Awesome channel if you are learning algorithms and data structures. Would highly recommend especially if you are in the job-seeking phase and preparing for interviews. 17. Ania Kubow One of the most recent channels. Specifies in JS game development. Easy to follow. Great resource if you are looking to learn vanilla JS. 18.
