Development is a constant learning process. Everyone has their own motivations: skill improvement, process streamlining, time saving. Keeping your finger on the pulse of new tech means witnessing entire empires rise and fall. And everyone wants to be the first to say the proverbial "I told you so."
We've rounded up our favorite content creators from the tech world. Over the years, we’ve applied their insights to our work many times, and we believe they can serve others well. Or at the very least entertain.
Ondra
Frontend Web Developer
Fireship
Extremely popular tutorials and short tech news in exactly the format we prefer –– short, clear, and engaging. In the hyperinformation age, this is a must watch for staying up-to-date while only dedicating 10-20 minutes a day to videos.
Bycloud
Everyone covers AI these days, but few can present the findings of scientific studies so engrossingly and in such detail that they’re directly transferable to your daily work.
Acerola
Acerola focuses on game graphics. In his videos, he often sets out a seemingly crazy goal on which he illustrates advanced theory and applies it to game development. If you're all about shaders and rendering, you've just found your new favorite channel.
Lukáš
Software Architect
Nick Chapsas
One of the best .NET and C# channels you can come across. Nick delivers his expertise in a fun yet thorough way, plus he usually gets to the point in a few minutes. A must-subscribe for any .NET developer –– junior or pro.
dotnet
A decent source of information is, of course, Microsoft's official .NET channel. If you're just dipping your toes in this framework, you'll adore the vitally useful tutorials. Overviews of new features are interspersed with recordings of various conference talks.
Thriving Technologist
Despite the name, the Thriving Technologist is most concerned with project management. He gives advice on team coordination and not losing your mind when the going gets tough. This channel is a life-saver when you need assurance that no project is perfect, mistakes happen naturally, but nearly everything can be salvaged with the right attitude.
Michal
Senior Software Engineer
TechLinked
Riley Murdock is a member of the LTT superfamily and serves up news from innovation and hardware about three times a week. For me, his content provides incisive commentary on the tech scene and adds much-needed context to every new development.
CodeBullet
The author gives a scathing review of himself as, "Just an idiot with a computer science degree trying his best." And yes, his programming experiments require a certain amount of bravery, but the line between madness and brilliance has never been this thin. CB mostly reworks famous games and trains artificial intelligence models to perform various absurd gaming challenges. Too bad we only get a few episodes per year.
Bringus Studios
Have you ever thought about running Half Life on a scanning translation pen? Neither have we, but Bringus Studios has built its entire channel on bizarre challenges like this. In his videos, he often plays with the capabilities of older hardware and unlocks its modding potential. A must for anyone who likes to test the limits of PCs and retro consoles.
