What videos... Well, the channel caught my eye because it had more advanced topics. I dont want to keep learning how to define variables in python. Actual, hard to understand, production ready, complete software design concepts. Thats what i am expecting from this channel.
Thanks for being transparent. I think this channel is uniquely positioned with practical tutorial content for intermediate / aspiring advanced Python programmers. The refactoring videos are particularly insightful. Keep up the great work.
I appreciate your candid explanation of 2024.and I agree, in hindsight, I notice that I did start to skip watching videos. I wish you all the best for the new year. You’re doing fantastic things. Stay healthy, stay sane.
Good luck in 2025! Hope the changes help keep the channel going. The early days of your channel were a huge help when starting my new career as a Software Developer. Rewatched your SOLID & design patterns videos many times!
I know tutorials are your bread and butter, but I personally love your "Top 10"-style content. Best Keyboards, VSCode Extensions You May Not Know, stuff like that. These are topics that you can revisit annually and are relevant to programmers of all stripes, not just Python devs. Anyhow, best of luck to you and the team in 2025!
I really love your insights on building a software based company. I think many of us start building our own products and services as we grow in skill. But you can really show us a lot about how you manage your team, mistakes to avoid, systems you use, metrics etc... Please make content about that
Hey Arjan Codes, I really enjoyed the open review of the year past. It's not often that you see entrepreneurs like yourself be so open about where the have stumbled and what they have learned. It says a lot about the sincerity of your work and it comes through in the quality of your videos overall. Keep it up and here's to a great 2025!
Great that you're so open Arjan about the difficulties you had to work through. Focus is good in a company. Regarding metrics, makes sure you don't ignore your core values and personal judgement on what is great content, in favor of trying to optimize tr he'll out of the metrics. This might work short time, but will hurt long-time. I'm not saying metrics are not useful, just don't rely on them too much.
Thanks for doing what you do! I watch your content because I like seeing how you tackle everyday problems. I can also trust you to keep me up to date with language changes and new libraries that are worth knowing about. If by "quality content" you mean more polished content, I would get the same value from looking at your code and listening to your thought process even if I had endure echos and unscripted moments!
I continue to struggle with 'driving to done' on my learning project got my flask app up, UV for packages, RUFF for linting and formatting code but I need to drive it out to be 'in production' get past the struggles to get my library up on PYPI get the flask app into a container and deployed - and I'd like to be using github routines to do those deployments! It's a lot of little things but I think others must struggle with the same issues!
Hello, my dear teacher and friend. You have been a very important companion in my development as a developer. I am 42 years old and decided to learn to program on my own. I am self-taught. However, I quickly realized that my codes were simple, but difficult to maintain. Today I am studying systems analysis and development (1 year), which helps me a lot. But with YOU, I can reflect and understand much better what I am doing. In short: you taught me how to think and expanded my repertoire by showing me different ways of doing things. Thank you and your team for creating such rich and reliable content. We will be together for another year, for sure!
One think about your contents esp long yt videos, those are, idk, just felt so honest, at least for me, might be bias bcz of ur accent but, really you're way of delivering the content just so humbled and calm. And yes, visually, your video quality improved. great work, Arjan & Team, GOAT attitude right there!!!. keep on cookin!!!
Hey Arjan, have you thought about posting videos related more to soft-skills? Like how to show your work, manage yearly reviews with management, salary negotiations, etc? I would really like to hear from you about that
Hi Arjan, I was suprised when I saw you removing wallpaper. I thought, your background image was a software-generated one. 😀. Suggestions for topics from my side are - compilation: is it somehow possible to create dll, lib or exe from Python code? - service oriented architecture or architecture topics in general - code metrics, measuring code quality in Python For sure I will continue wathing your videos. Keep it up! 🙂
Has it really only been 4 years... I feel like I've been watching ArjanCodes for ever... This is still one of my very favourite programming channels, and I'm not really that much of a Python programmer.
With all those OKRs I also hoped you added 2 week sprints whose Jira tickets must be completed before paychecks are issued! 😂 kidding aside. Please 🙏 do whatever you need to do to keep the great content coming. I may be an N of 1, but your channel is the only one I make sure to watch every week.
It's too bad that you can't rate the content that you view on a scale of value. For example, I've seen on TH-cam some short videos have a lot of great valuable content, while some long videos have some benefit for me, but are quite long. I really like your videos, the variety and quality. Hope you keep doing well!
Seems your heading into time series analysis to track your kpi‘s. Why not use this as content as well? TSA is way more than fft and arima - and python/pandas is reasonable good at it.
Big Fan since the beginning. One thought I had was to take something like Advent of Code, leetcode, or Codewars - pick a few interesting challenges and then do a deep dive into setting up and working those challenges. I've done a bunch, first in a functional manner (just to get it working), then moving on the same challenge into OOP and then advanced OOP, with Unittest. Has been a great experience.
My not so humble suggestions: Drop the shorts. Nothing of importance will be lost. Increase the complexity of issues covered, if necessary by reducing the number of videos. Focus entirely on code/coding/design - nothing about the periphery. You are a stunning educator for coding. There are 732,000 people who can recommend keyboards (I ignore all of them) or VSCode plugins (ditto), or neovim configs (I pay attention to three of them). But for coding, you're a big fish, so focus on that. If none of the above resonate, then cool. Just make sure you're enjoying what you're doing and that will come across in the videos you do put out and I'll probably still watch.
At 1 point some shorts you posted would pop up, and it seemed like it was recycled content from existing videos and you would show some irrelevant (AI generated) pictures in the short. These shorts were really bad and I guess that is part of the reason why some things went downhill. They stopped appearing along with your videos that you were posting.
Aaaagh I hate to be the one who posts the 70th comment on a video, but yeah focus on the 20% of the work that gives you the 80% of the results. Happy new year
Maybe videos on building AI agents or chatbots with function calling? I would personally love to see your approach on how you would teach an `Intro to Python` series as well.
Arjan would it be poosible for you to start software architecture series ?
What videos...
Well, the channel caught my eye because it had more advanced topics. I dont want to keep learning how to define variables in python.
Actual, hard to understand, production ready, complete software design concepts. Thats what i am expecting from this channel.
I really appreciate this authentic inside into your business. All the best for 2025, seems you have a solid plan!
Thanks for being transparent. I think this channel is uniquely positioned with practical tutorial content for intermediate / aspiring advanced Python programmers. The refactoring videos are particularly insightful. Keep up the great work.
Making the channel immutable is simply good practice
LOL exactly. With pure videos.
You at least want Likes count mutable
Don't forget about views 😊@@ivanmaglica264
I love the code review and the example design pattern videos. I look forward to seeing more of them this year!

Probably The best programming Channel in TH-cam. Keep going on and make things stupidly simple!
Your work with coding education is awesome.
Have an amazing 2025
Love your down to earth attitude! That’s why I love watching this channel!
Keep on the great work! Great content

I appreciate that!
doing an actual implementation of DDD and onion architecture.
Very interesting insights Arjan, tanks for this!
Thanks Arjan and the team for your work!❤Heb een prachtig 2025

I really appreciate your channel! You're easily one of the best youtubers for best Python practices. I cherish your info
I liked the peeling back of the curtain with a spatula haha. Always thought you filmed in a wing of your house 😮
Arjan, thanks for the updates on your side. Thumbs up and thanks for your work in 2024. good luck and audience in 2025!
I continue to struggle with 'driving to done' on my learning project got my flask app up, UV for packages, RUFF for linting and formatting code but I need to drive it out to be 'in production' get past the struggles to get my library up on PYPI get the flask app into a container and deployed - and I'd like to be using github routines to do those deployments! It's a lot of little things but I think others must struggle with the same issues!
Arjen my opinion is also to give less but longer videos. I find i cant keep up with all your videos (thats my experience) 👏
Probably the best channel for upskilling coding knowledge of people already working in the industry... Good luck and well being for the coming year

www.youtube.com/@HealthyDev This channel is exactly about that and have lots of great content
It's that time of year 😅
Complimenten voor de ondernemer die in de spiegel durft te kijken. 👍
How is there no conda vs pip video yet? I don’t think I’ve ever seen conda mentioned on this channel, but it’s huge in data science
Hi Arjan, I was suprised when I saw you removing wallpaper. I thought, your background image was a software-generated one. 😀.
Suggestions for topics from my side are
- compilation: is it somehow possible to create dll, lib or exe from Python code?
- service oriented architecture or architecture topics in general

Oh yeah I remember the Uncle Bob video's back then! I've been watching your channel ever since.
Has it really only been 4 years... I feel like I've been watching ArjanCodes for ever... This is still one of my very favourite programming channels, and I'm not really that much of a Python programmer.
4 Years. Congrats!
All the best for 2025. I watch your videos no matter what.
My most rewatched videos on this channel are dataclasses, monads, and decorators.
I like how the auto-subtitles replace ArjanCodes with Ironcoats :) or is that really the name of the company?
Stuck in tutorial hell hope to get some clarity 😂
what’s that keyboard and does anyone recommend?
You can try white spirit. It dissolves quite few glue types.
Thanks for the suggestion, but no luck. WD40 doesn’t work either.
Please make video on your thoughts about Golang
With all those OKRs I also hoped you added 2 week sprints whose Jira tickets must be completed before paychecks are issued!
😂 kidding aside. Please 🙏 do whatever you need to do to keep the great content coming. I may be an N of 1, but your channel is the only one I make sure to watch every week.
Thank you for the support!
Can you please have a video on handling concurrent writes and stale data using SQLAlchemy?
It's too bad that you can't rate the content that you view on a scale of value. For example, I've seen on TH-cam some short videos have a lot of great valuable content, while some long videos have some benefit for me, but are quite long.

Thanks for that!
Post your programmer socks
Seems your heading into time series analysis to track your kpi‘s. Why not use this as content as well? TSA is way more than fft and arima - and python/pandas is reasonable good at it.
TH-cam: *introduces shorts*
Also youtube: *punishes people for shorter watch times*
>.
"Let's look smart by bashing TH-cam without understanding anything"
"Nothing ever happens😠"

is coding going to be dead as Mark Zukerberg said in his recent podcast with Joe Regan?
what are your thoughts?
Hope everything will be OK in 2025
Aaaagh I hate to be the one who posts the 70th comment on a video, but yeah focus on the 20% of the work that gives you the 80% of the results. Happy new year
ML, DL and AI vídeos
Bro's on conservative vibe, gotta respect that.
I'm always here for code roasts and always fall for the code architecture "bait" I guess you could call it.
Nim & Mojo
ArjanScrapes
Maybe videos on building AI agents or chatbots with function calling? I would personally love to see your approach on how you would teach an `Intro to Python` series as well.
more code roast!
rust please
Golang videos 😅
First
Dangit nice one
Arjan will finally quit Python and take up BASIC.
