Top 12 YouTube Channels Every Web Developer Should Follow

No matter, If you are a beginner or an expert, this post is for everyone.

I have personally used every channel for years and learned a lot. Also, I have consulted top web developers to provide my readers the best I can.

I am not getting paid from any of the YouTube channels or does not contain any affiliate link. Yes, there is not a single resource that will help me to earn money.

Who am I?

I am a self-taught Web Developer and also a React Native Developer with 2+ years of experience.

So now, you can trust me.

Right? I am kidding.

Before proceeding further, here are some of the best free resources you can bookmark.

Now let us jump right into the topic.

1. freeCodeCamp

It was the first YouTube channel I have visited to learn Web Development.

According to Wikipedia, freeCodeCamp (also referred to as “Free Code Camp”) is a non-profit organization that consists of an interactive learning web platform, an online community forum, chat rooms, online publications, and local organizations that intend to make learning web development accessible to anyone.

Quincy Larson is the creator of freeCodeCamp.

Why did he create and implement it?

Quincy Larson summarises in a podcast interview as follows:

freeCodeCamp is my effort to correct the extremely inefficient and circuitous way I learned to code. I’m committing my career and the rest of my life towards making this process as efficient and painless as possible. […] All those things that made learning to code a nightmare to me are things that we are trying to fix with freeCodeCamp.

2. Clever Programmer

Rafeh Qazi, A well-taught tech expert, was a freelancer and then shifted directly to teach students.

Rafeh Qazi started his YouTube Channel with Sonny Sangha and more to teach programmers through creating clones.

I have used those tutorials and created Amazon Clone, Instagram Clone.

How did I get to know about Clever Programmers?

My YouTube history has tons of Web Development and App Development videos. And YouTube recommends us with similar topics. So one day, I got a recommendation to build Instagram clones with React.js, and that is it.

Qazi with his teams creates clones and explains them efficiently.

For example Amazon Clone, Instagram Clone, Gmail Clone, and many more.

3. Traversy Media

Brad Traversy is the creator of Traversy Media. He is a freelancer, works for companies, and runs his own business.

Along with that, he now runs a YouTube channel to teach Web Development.

I have been following him for a long time.

In his life, he worked with great effort leaving his health aside. Due to which he is now suffering from health issues.

What next? He quit.

No, he invited other YouTubers to teach students with him.

What a passion. Hats off to Brad Traversy.

4. Google Chrome Developers

Google Chrome Developers needs no introduction.

When I need to know about the latest trends in Web Development, I visit Google Chrome Developers.

I have learned PWA (Progressive Web App), Modern JavaScript, Cookies, and tons of others.

Here is the link for Google Chrome Developers.

5. Academind

I want to learn more about MERN Stack when I was a beginner. So I went to Udemy and took a course.

I do not know about Academind before that. And then, from his Course, I went to his YouTube channel.

And I subscribed to it.

6. Web Dev Simplified

What is it? As the name suggests, Kyle Cook teaches web development as simple as possible.

7. JavaScript Mastery

I want to learn more about PWA and implement it. I searched over the internet, and I found out JavaScript Mastery.

And then, I went to learn and deploy the Full Stack MERN App from this channel.

And after that, I subscribed to it.

8. Stefan Mischook

We all went stuck at some point like:

1. How to be a Web Developer?

2. How to scale?

3. Are there any jobs, how to apply?

All these questions knock on our door, and we need the answer. For that, Stefan Mischook is the best suitable channel for you.

Here Stefan Mischook answers many of the questions a programmer or a developer should know.

9. London App Brewery

Angela Yu and her team run this YouTube Channel.

Indeed, I am her biggest fan.

Why? Because my Web Development journey began due to her.

Other than Web Development, she teaches Flutter, iOS Development, and many more.

Here is the link for London App Brewery.

10. DesignCourse

Building a website or app without designing makes no sense. The design makes the website pleasurable. A website requires UI/UX.

And I learned designing from DesignCourse.

11. Dev Ed

A Funny YouTuber always tries to teach simple and straightforward.

There are playlists for Python, JavaScript, React, Node, etc.

12. The Net Ninja

When I was learning MERN Stack, I got to know that React Native is simple enough. And I want to learn it, and here The Net Ninja helped me.

There are tons of tutorials explaining Vue, Angular, React, React Native, Flutter, PHP, Firebase, CSS, JavaScript, GraphQL, etc.

Here is the link for The Net Ninja.

Let us Wrap.

Learning and implementing Web Development skills requires time and effort. And you have to invest in yourself to be successful.
