3 books that every beginner should give a chance if they feel deeply frustrated with learning to code (like I did for a long time): 1) Eloquent Javascript (if you’re completely new to programming) 2) Smarter Way to Learn Python (the best to learn python) 3) Head First Javascript Programming (great to develop your knowledge on JS) The beginning is the most difficult part. Get the basics right and learning anything else becomes much quicker after that.

A Udemy teacher who teaches computer science concepts in detail is Vignesh Sekar. He has course series on operating systems, computer architecture, the theory of computation, discrete math and database management. I think the first two categories might be helpful for programmers specializing in IoT, C++, apps that depend a lot on multithreading, and so forth. I'm not sure who the third and fourth categories would be useful for: I took a discrete math class in college (university) and I think it helps me a little with logic and binary numbers, but I'm not sure how much. The last category could be useful for SQL developers, aspiring DBA's, etc. I'm taking the database management series now. The best thing to do is either take a CS series that you're curious about or wait until you need to learn a topic, rather than trying to learn a lot of theory just because you think you should.
I just find it fascinating and to be honest really sweet of Angela Yu how much love and detail she is putting into her courses, especially the 100 days of Pyhton course. She provides you with all these Cheat Sheets, Motivational posters etc. it is so lovely.
@@TTT-oj1mj I only did the front end cert from Meta but from the curriculum I found the IBM Backend Course very promising since they also teach you a bit of deployment.
Max/Academind has great courses for pretty much anything webdev related (Vue, React, Angular, mobile, Python, Node, SQL, Mongo, GIT...) and they all great. Because of his Vue course I got a well paid job, but all of them are great. This is actually a very good list, great work!
@ashok basin I was a QA engineer but wanted to do more besides test automation. So, I took his Javascript class and then his react class. That react class was so good I was able to help developers make components in our ui library when I wasn't updating our test automation suite. I even started fixing bugs I found in the code. After about a year I built my portfolio site up and then got promoted because they know I would go elsewhere if not. I've had another promotion since then and i took his react native class and I'm looking to launch my own app on the app store later this year. I've taken other classes and done other sites like Frontend masters to gain even further knowledge but max was my goto for getting a good understanding of something. I even got senior and staff engineers singing his praise because a lot of them worked in angular and php so the move to react was even easier with his class
Max is my favorite teacher. I have learned everything related to web development from him and I am currently working to complete all of his courses. He not only possesses the ability to teach effectively but also demonstrates the ability to think critically.
I personally can't go with the course, but follow instructors who make us think properly. A few of them are already covered in thistle video like ZTM - Andrei Neagoi, Ranga Karanam, Scott duffy, Angela Yu, jose portilla, Maximillian. Some more to consider would be Abdul Bari, Mosh Hamedani, Brad Traversy, Leila Gharani, Peter Hanley, Bharat Thippireddy, Boris Paskhaver, Navin Reddy.
@@TravisMedia you are a great teacher... I'm interested in building mobile apps , please how do i start ? And what and what do i have to get aclamitized with ? .. i need your reply my teacher
Travis, as far as Java Script is concerned, Anthony Alicea’s “understanding java script the weird parts “ is a great one. It reinforces the fundamentals
Great video Travis! UX design courses like the one on Coursera could be helpful as well. Couldn't hurt to know a few design and accessibility concepts which could help as a developer. I'm sure there are good ones on Udemy as well.
Actually I should have included a UX course. I took one early on and found it really helpful personally and for anyone getting into web dev. Good recommendation!
Jonas' course on JavaScript is incredible. I've been taking it for a little over a month now, and it's crazy how I went from no knowledge to where I am now, I've made a couple of small webapps. And that isn't much, but I'm only a third of the way through. Take that course if you need to know JS. Seriously.
Thank you Travis, great video! the only udemy course that I would add to your list is "React - The Complete Guide (incl Hooks, React Router, Redux)" from Maximilian Schwarzmüller, the best udemy react course, once again thanks for all of your content Travis, it's a great guide!
@@TravisMedia is there a part 2 of this video coming? maybe also broadening outside udemy. There must be some great free courses on other sites like coursera?
I really appreciate the emphasis on foundational skills and mindset in this list. I feel like most videos like this would be about xyz cool language/trendy technology/etc so it’s nice to get some advice on how to obtain some fundamentals. Being 2 years in as a bootcamp-taught developer it’s become clear how important all these skills are and how badly I lack them, definitely going to work through these courses. Thanks!
I really appreciate this video because for me personally I'm always looking to develop my skills no matter how much I know or think I know (I'm a full-stack/front-end focused developer). Some of these I can disagree with to a point but find myself agreeing with you on almost everything to a certain degree and I'm sure this is because my experiences are similar to yours but not the same. Either way there are stages that we go through in our professional endeavors and I think this is a comprehensive way to envelop yourself into a successful environment.
These are great and all. But if you are in the process of becoming a junior software engineer you don't need to go through all of this before you apply for jobs. Showing exitement and eager to learn will take you a long way all of this is to help you improve while you are at your first job and want to advance your career. I see so many people claiming that you need to know this and that and then refering you to take courses which in many cases they themselves sell. Sure you can do that but what's most important is that you are out there looking for jobs and learning the process, knowing every little detail about coding is secondary.
I honestly would give a huge credit to Dr Angela Yu whose courses on Web Development literally helped me learn the basics of coding. And I don't think anyone would question Angela Yu's skills as a teacher. This video again was insightful with all tips.
I started becoming a self taught programmer when I was 14. By the time I got to college, my college courses didn't teach me much on coding, as I already understood the fundamentals. What really helped me to grow, was my first coding job, working under a senior software developer. He helped me learn best practices and how to code in a cleaner, more efficient style, that I wouldn't have learned just working on my own. Now I have been working in software for almost 15 years and I still find that his instruction was invaluable. My biggest recommendation to all junior software developers, or anyone who is getting started with coding, is usually to find a mentor who already knows these clean design styles. Glad to see that you included a course like that in your list!
I'm working my way through several of these, they are long, it takes time and effort. I agree with one of the comments, Colt Steele's Git/Github course is pretty much essential.
Great video. I would recommend courses from Tim Buchalka (Java , API, general programming, etc), Colt Steelee (Git, Web develpment bootcamps, etc) and Mike Meyers (CompTIA).
Harvard CS50 - Full Computer Science University Course on EdEx and also here on the FreeCodeCamp TH-cam channel is absolutely brilliant. The teacher is animated and teaches the material in a structured, clear, and concise way with humor. It starts with at total beginner (no knowledge) and moves on to introduce everything you will need to know to get your career started. When I saw Harvard, I thought it would be way above my head, and it does eventually become quite challenging, but if you follow step-by-step it's totally doable. IMHO
Nice list, most of them I had already, and I started a long DevOps course recently that covers the Linux and Cloud. The "I want to be a Senior" is something really underrated, most developers focus only on technical things and forget that there are a lot of important things in your career besides coding.
Great video! I have been developing for 25+ years and there is always something to learn or to brush up on. These online course are great for Jr developers to get up to speed quickly. Also, they are great for us old timers trying to stay current.
I am learning cybersecurity in a community college. As an experienced person in the field of coding do u think i will need to learn about coding to be successful in cybersecurity
Awesome video ! But I gotta say as a developer I have never in my career touched a Linux system ONCE. So you can be a dev and have only worked on Windows systems. If Azure or other cloud services use Linux in the background or you have the possibility to use them that's fine but I think it's not a requirement to know Linux.
Great work! I will add this to number 10: 1. Computer Organization and Architecture 2. Data Structure & Algorithms in pure C language courses I have paid for some courses, but found a free course here on TH-cam to be much better. Here's the channel name: Neso Academy. I hope this helps some people.
@@GoodByeSkyHarborLive um e.g. a course of setting up an nginx server, a course on mTLS in Java, etc., to revisit when struggling to achieve something in particular. But such a course would have to a wide gradient of information, ranging from the fundamentals to the advanced cases. Usually it's the former, and one has to go build himself the complex picture from the bits on Stackoverflow... Which is inefficient and full of dead ends
I'm about to go back to school for my masters in computer science, 20 years after getting the bachelors. Seeing as how I barely survived the first time around, I was questioning the wisdom of this decision. They're gonna make me take algorithms again and I still have PTSD from when I took it as an undergrad. Of course, we didn't have TH-cam (never mind things like Udemy) back then to help you out. Your recommendation for the algo course on Udemy just might save my ass. I see it has sections on things like dynamic programming, which to this day sends shivers down my spine. So, thanks for this video!
Thank you for this amazing video! Just realized I have 4 out of 10 lol. Also, maybe add a version control course? I landed on a software developer job with Angela's 100 days Python, AWS cloud practitioner course, and a Git course.
Hello, I am transitioning from Economics to Software Development and I wanted to use Udemy as my studying platform. I would appreciate If you could please tell me your experience with Udemy or even advise me about. Would it be sufficient? Thanks
Dr. Angela Yu is so good at Udemy, Right this second I am taking her course on The Complete 2024 Web Development Bootcamp for $12. She is very thoural in her lectures. She breaks down the tasks into small understandable bites. Now I know two of us like her teaching methods.
I think Udemy such a underrated platform to learn and upskill. I took couple of courses by max/academind and I learned a lot. btw thanks for sharing this, this will certainly help.
I paid only 450 rupees ($5.5 ) for their course which is far more lower then most of the platform. By underrated I mean they are providing good courses at very cheap price. I would be happy to give even $100 for their courses. may be its their customer acquisition strategy but they have very good price to knowledge ratio.
Good recommendations. I like that the courses themselves give an outline for what to learn so even if you decide not to take the course, you have a curriculum to follow. That said the recommendation for "I Didn't Get a Computer Science Degree" doesn't actually cover things that are taught in Computer Science. It was more Information Systems/IT focused which is a fine but a bit of a misnomer.
Amazing content Travis! I haven't heard abou the 100 days of x courses and just loved the idea, great way to get introduced to a new language and get its common do's and don'ts, thanks for sharing!
To all beginners out there: be very careful with these "advice" - you will not need any courses and do not need to waste your money on them. If you are genuinely interested in the software development fields and very curious, you will get there by yourself (for free) with hard work.
This is a really silly take. $15 per 20-30hr course is not breaking the bank. If you really want it, you would be afraid to invest $15 for your future career.
$10 to $15 for a 20+ hour course is much cheaper than "doing your own research". I literally built my SRE / DevOps career using these courses spending essentially the equivalent of a trip to Costco.
Those are really great courses shown in the video but these are more targeted towards Web Developers. As a game programmer I would definitely not pick JavaScript course and pick a course about Shaders. Another course that proves to be EXTREMELY important for anyone who wants to write high performance code is a good course about computer architecture (more specifically CPU: SIMD, caches, how to write cache-friendly code). Another thing I will do, is look for the structure of the interview-in-python course and study these from the internet (no good reason to waste money when there plenty of free resources for these problems).
This is an awesome guide, thank you! When I was learning to code I would take so many of these courses and I really loves doing them. However since I have become a full time developer I find it so difficult to find the time to learn outside or work. I have been trying to work through the same course now for the past few months : (
Impressive, you really gave me a guideline of which I know will benefit me in the future. No more randomized learning as a self taught developer. Thank you 😊
There is one important aspect of picking the right Udemy course and that is to actually listen to the preview of each course before buying because some of the instructors have thick accents that you may find hard to understand. Take a minute to see if you can understand them.
I absolutely love this collection and will definitely take them at some point in my learning journey. Of course, udemy can't replace a couple of years studying for a cs degree but it sure provides some clear and fast track way to get an understanding of a certain technology. Big thanks 🤝
Few more resources I would like to recommend on Udemy. 1) For Microservices and Restful Service in Java - Sergey Kargopolov. In28Minutes. - Sergey has separate courses for microservice architecture and Restful services in Spring boot. Ranga from In28Minutes has one that includes both. Nevertheless, both are comprehensive and worth taking up. 2) For Web development, especially Javascript, Angular and React - Max/Academind - I took his Angular course 5 yrs ago when I was studying Angular 6. Now he has updated that course to the latest version. Basically, he walks you through a project and you learn the concepts as you are implementing them in the project. 3) Android Development - Denis Panjuta and Paul Dichone - They have another course for Android Jetpack. Both have complete sections where you build a project that focuses on certain concepts. 4) AWS - Neal Davis and Stephen Maarek - I am currently doing the one by Neal. Good for beginners or someone who wants to get a taste of the power for AWS 5) System Design - Frank Kane - Almost every interview contains a System Design round. Frank's course covers every topic you need. 6) Java Masterclass - Tim Buchalka - Comprehensive. Gives challenges that are interesting and make you think even if you have a hands-on in Java.
I think for some of these more fundamental subjects (e.g. Linux/SQL) it is better to just buy good books. Way more practical to use them as reference in the future.
@Travis Hey, I have to tell you I love the 100 Days of Code - The Complete Python Pro Bootcamp! The instructor is very good and detail-oriented. She makes it seem easy, so you have success right from the beginning!
I am NOT a software developer or engineer, but rather in the field of applied math who is looking to become a decent programmer. I agree that Udemy has some excellent courses. Thanks for your suggestions. I have purchased several already.
If im completely new to programming, where exactly should i begin? Im swapping my welding career after working for 10+ hard working years for a shot at this tech industry and want to become somthing greater that i was before. Im just so nervous to learn the wrong things or waste time. It all looks so much fun and interesting but i have no idea what language to begin or what i should do. Any advice?
Great video, like it I don't know if these courses cover it, but programming principles like oop, functional, etc I think it helps when you can do functional programming in lisp or clojure to be a better programmer in any other language To avoid big issues like stack trace, and global mutation Git?? Version Control
Need a chart to lay out what should be learned simply at a high level, as once you understand everything at a high level, with a little debugging skills thrown in, you can learn to prompt LLMs to produce your desired code or result from a process. I'm a horrible coder, but I have built some awesome stuff with the help of LLMs
It's interesting that all of those options broke your $15 rule. 😉 I'm going through a CSS/JS course on Udemy at the moment, so will look at some of those once I've completed that. Ta! 🙂
Idk if you're being sarcastic but when he says you shouldn't pay too much for a course, he's referring to the fact that Udemy has constant "2 hours left!!!" sales that bring the price way down for new users.
@@toranshaw4029 I didn't think that meant sarcasm.. the standard sarcasm sign is "/s". For all I know it could've meant condescending, like "Maybe you should've studied better 😉" Also the emoji looks different on different phones, changing its interpretation.
I get access to a lot of Udemy courses through my city's library. All courses aren't available, but I always check there first. For anything that isn't available, I load up the cart and check daily for sales.
This is one of the most useful videos I've come across yet! bookmarked for the future, as I'm still on HTML/CSS/JS and I have the JS course you've mentioned and can't wait to dive into the rest! Thank you so much for the roadmap/list.
For those having trouble finding promo codes, I have added this month's promo codes in the description or look to travis.media/udemy. What courses would you recommend?
The 100 days python course is never in sale. Never, ever. I've wishilsted it ages ago and every single time when I check Udemy during the special week sale, the price is always the same. In other hand, Portilla's courses always have some oscillation.
@@zeminem35 unfortunately no. It seems like the people from app brewery is on a very long vacation. They don't respond posts on Facebook for two years already. So do in the twitter. It's a shame. Maybe this other one from Portilla, that was referred by the TH-camr, something lime zero to hero, José Portilla.
Thanks Travis, I missed the 25-26 Jan codes, but went through your blog article for finding coupons. Took me longer than I'd have liked to find a code that worked for the courses I wanted, but eventually found one that brought most of my cart down to the $11-$16 range you suggested. Thanks for the tips!
impostor syndrome: This is a good video to show you the path. Always trust yourself and know your abilities. Back yourself on what you know, I been developer over 25 years and still trying to catch on the tech, obviously, tech will always be changing, your mind set is the most important thing. Understand what is impostor syndrome, don't be victim of it. Get yourself a job where you can learn and use skills. Money should be second priority. Do not play catch up with the tech. Know your path, what you want to be, general knowledge of most stuff is good, but trying to specialise in each, is impostor syndrome.
Sir, I am in a dilemma between choosing '100 Days of Code' by Dr Angela Yu and 'The Complete Python Bootcamp' by Jose Portilla. Please kindly pick one for me!!
very informational video Travis... from my side, I'm on an AWS cloud/5G network/business analysis 12 months Learnership. for the past 2 month, I've managed to cover as much AWS services, learnt Linux (for the first time). Linux is also found on the AWS canvas documentation, which also covers the basics of python programming.
0:40 I have A LOT of udemy courses on my wish list and I own a lot too 😅😅😅 I was wondering would it be weird if I had a LARGE number of udemy course certificates on my CV/resume or on my linkedIn page 🤔 what would employers think of that
Question for everyone. I’m a new software developer. With all of the new AI tools Microsoft is releasing through Azure, would you say if you haven’t learned either to go with Azure? Or, would you still recommend AWS or maybe Google Cloud? I would love to hear reasons for one or the other!
There is no need to buy all of these courses in order to learn these technologies, there is always free alternatives, you can find good video tutorial on TH-cam for pretty much every courses and that's how I learn, It's okay to buy a one course you really into, and you really think that will boost your productivity and help your career
Thank you so much for the recommendation. I'm currently half way on 100 days of Python by Angela Yuu, but there are just too many things to learn. At least this allows me to plan ahead and know what courses to take.
You dont have to do the 100 days of Python in 100 days. I’ve only used this course as a starting point for projects and I went off and did my own thing.
You know the interesting thing is that its very clear that you exist in the part of the world where there is no big deal on whether you do have a computer science degree or not so long you're productive and can enrich yourself through constant accumulation of courses and certificates. I agree with the comments below that perhaps the stage two of this video is to describe the technology stack that goes with each language and exactly how do languages get to be leveraged, more specifically in what domains. For example java and c# are mainly used in enterprise applications hence you'll find them mostly usd in banks insurance companies e.t.c. But you will seldom use them in the flying of drones or in raspberry pi and Arduino projects. JavaScript is surprisingly soaring on the market perhaps its due to the discovery that it can be used on the web just as much as it can be used on. But I enjoyed your insight and I will add on some concepts according to your advise. Much appreciated, keep up the good work
For those embedded type applications you're probably going to use C. Or even assembler on very constrained processors. People in the US regularly complain about being a certification treadmill. Employers expected employees to do training outside work hours and to pay for it themselves. So maybe not that great.
Max/Academind courses are well taught but the thing I really dislike is every couple months he will upload 1 or 2 files to keep the course looking new but can have content that's 5, 6 years old or older. Especially with frameworks like React or Angular that are in active development, 5 years is an eternity. I purchased a class that said 2022 but had content literally dated 2016. As any developer can tell you React and Angular are very different beasts than they were 8 years ago.
I am a fan of Colt Steele. Structured, fun, practical and updated. At some point, I got some courses just because I loved his teaching and thought I might be interested in the theme in the future.
These are all good recommendations. I am a front end web dev but I still have to use most/all of the skills taught in these courses, even if only in an infrequent/surface level capacity, on some occasion at my job.
Good tips, one of the things I do before to select a course is see what say people that give a low rate of qualify, then I can understand if these things will me affet or not. The most important tip that you give here is to read the course content and the needed 10 topics that we need to cover. Thanks.
Unfortunately this video did not age very well All the courses on Udemy jumped about 10x in price, and they seem to want to push into paying a monthholy fee for plan to get access to the "best" content on the platform
10:08 He changed the title to 2023 but didn't even bother to update the course itself since 2021. Most of them change a single file to at least trick us the code has been updated.
i have to say one of the courses you missed was about the different UML diagrams In my opinion they are really important to work on a project and provide its stability over the time
OKAYYY YOU REALLY HELPED ME, A BRAZILIAN SYSTEMS INFORMATION BACHELORS STUDENT (: i am into the first semester and university is not going as fast as i want so i want to take the time i have to learn more your list make it clear and surely its a very very solid base) i implemented two more courses that match my degree but i hope helps others and even you when you release the next version of this video 1.networking focused course (dont need to be a huge course. just a trusted mentor is enough to make you understand thing and maybe try a low level cisco certificate) 2.devops again thank you.
After completing my java course, I need to decide between javascript or the linux course. Dunno what to begin with or even if it‘s a good idea to learn both at the same time. Meaning 1 day JS, 2nd day linux and so forth. After consideration, after I finished my Java course, I will go with the linux course as I can use the knowledge on my current job since we got several linux machines (webservers, index and the backend server). After that JS.
the only problem with Udemy is the fact that sometimes courses that were good 3 years ago (and got good reviews back then) become outdated and are hard to follow along. Since they are not unlisted and there is no warnings - you might run into a course that is just too old, but still has high ratings. Another bad practice - reuploaded courses, that look new, but are actually outdated. So, always check those bad reviews to catch those cases. It is less of a problem for "conceptual" courses, but if it is about rapidly developed framework , where things get deprecated, and new practices are introduced etc - then it might be a problem .
What about UML? Is there no place in your developer world for UML. Doesn't anybody do diagramming? What about UseCase? What about class diagrams? What about ER diagrams?
I so very much agree with you! I haven’t heard so far anyone bash Udemy but I won’t listen to anyone who does become I personally have learned MUCH on there to do what I need to do and to excel where I need to excel. Love Udemy and many many times they run sales almost all the time making a $100 course to be $20! Anyways haha. I’ll finish watching your video!
Hi, You should make a similar list for a DevOps engineers. One or two tools from each vertical in the DevOps periodic table and best courses on them. That would be a treat :-)
Wouldn't be Harvard CS50 better for "I didn't get computer science degree"? Because Comptia is all about Network Hardware and Structure but not programming
Outstanding! A course on the basics of Data Science/Machine Learning/Deep Learning/Artificial Intelligence will become important in every field. Sooner or later, every industry will be embedding some commercial or open source ML\DL capability into every software application. You need to understand the general concepts behind Data Science, not how to use the many different ML/DL frameworks but a conversational understanding.
3 books that every beginner should give a chance if they feel deeply frustrated with learning to code (like I did for a long time):
1) Eloquent Javascript (if you’re completely new to programming)
2) Smarter Way to Learn Python (the best to learn python)
3) Head First Javascript Programming (great to develop your knowledge on JS)
The beginning is the most difficult part. Get the basics right and learning anything else becomes much quicker after that.
Head first should be the beginners book imo. I easily passed my java oca exam but found Eloquent JS hard.

A Udemy teacher who teaches computer science concepts in detail is Vignesh Sekar. He has course series on operating systems, computer architecture, the theory of computation, discrete math and database management. I think the first two categories might be helpful for programmers specializing in IoT, C++, apps that depend a lot on multithreading, and so forth. I'm not sure who the third and fourth categories would be useful for: I took a discrete math class in college (university) and I think it helps me a little with logic and binary numbers, but I'm not sure how much. The last category could be useful for SQL developers, aspiring DBA's, etc. I'm taking the database management series now. The best thing to do is either take a CS series that you're curious about or wait until you need to learn a topic, rather than trying to learn a lot of theory just because you think you should.
I just find it fascinating and to be honest really sweet of Angela Yu how much love and detail she is putting into her courses, especially the 100 days of Pyhton course. She provides you with all these Cheat Sheets, Motivational posters etc. it is so lovely.

@ashok basin I was a QA engineer but wanted to do more besides test automation. So, I took his Javascript class and then his react class. That react class was so good I was able to help developers make components in our ui library when I wasn't updating our test automation suite. I even started fixing bugs I found in the code. After about a year I built my portfolio site up and then got promoted because they know I would go elsewhere if not. I've had another promotion since then and i took his react native class and I'm looking to launch my own app on the app store later this year. I've taken other classes and done other sites like Frontend masters to gain even further knowledge but max was my goto for getting a good understanding of something.
I even got senior and staff engineers singing his praise because a lot of them worked in angular and php so the move to react was even easier with his class
Max is my favorite teacher. I have learned everything related to web development from him and I am currently working to complete all of his courses. He not only possesses the ability to teach effectively but also demonstrates the ability to think critically.
I personally can't go with the course, but follow instructors who make us think properly. A few of them are already covered in thistle video like ZTM - Andrei Neagoi, Ranga Karanam, Scott duffy, Angela Yu, jose portilla, Maximillian. Some more to consider would be Abdul Bari, Mosh Hamedani, Brad Traversy, Leila Gharani, Peter Hanley, Bharat Thippireddy, Boris Paskhaver, Navin Reddy.
abdul and mosh are some of the best programming teacher i have ever seen.
Damn boi, did you get a Masters from Udemy?! lmao
@@chillydoog 😄😁
I think you should include Docker and Kubernetes, they are becoming essential for most frameworks.
True! Good call
@@TravisMedia you are a great teacher... I'm interested in building mobile apps , please how do i start ? And what and what do i have to get aclamitized with ? .. i need your reply my teacher
@@creativeisland1996 Damn you're helpless, take some initiative.
@@mikyhtx don't be so harsh, we were all at this stage at some point in time.
I agree with you @soulofangel1990
Travis, as far as Java Script is concerned, Anthony Alicea’s “understanding java script the weird parts “ is a great one. It reinforces the fundamentals
But it's way too old (based on an obsolete version of ES). One can learn the basics but has to take another course
@@SShreyas17 yes. I wish he creates more courses.
Great video Travis! UX design courses like the one on Coursera could be helpful as well. Couldn't hurt to know a few design and accessibility concepts which could help as a developer. I'm sure there are good ones on Udemy as well.
Actually I should have included a UX course. I took one early on and found it really helpful personally and for anyone getting into web dev. Good recommendation!
@@TravisMedia can u mention which UX course ur refering
Jonas' course on JavaScript is incredible.
I've been taking it for a little over a month now, and it's crazy how I went from no knowledge to where I am now, I've made a couple of small webapps. And that isn't much, but I'm only a third of the way through.
Take that course if you need to know JS. Seriously.
Hey i am also doing this Jonas course and i had just completed clousre and dive into arrays ,where u have been in course
@@abusalim49 Section 10: A closer look at functions
Thank you Travis, great video! the only udemy course that I would add to your list is "React - The Complete Guide (incl Hooks, React Router, Redux)" from Maximilian Schwarzmüller, the best udemy react course, once again thanks for all of your content Travis, it's a great guide!
Great recommendation on a React course. That's a good one!
Max is a hack. 🤦♂️
İn my opinion, the best react course, john smilga. I learned lots of things
@@mucize_anlaryeah me too. I choose John Smilga, I buy course from max too btw.
@@TravisMedia is there a part 2 of this video coming? maybe also broadening outside udemy. There must be some great free courses on other sites like coursera?
I really appreciate the emphasis on foundational skills and mindset in this list. I feel like most videos like this would be about xyz cool language/trendy technology/etc so it’s nice to get some advice on how to obtain some fundamentals. Being 2 years in as a bootcamp-taught developer it’s become clear how important all these skills are and how badly I lack them, definitely going to work through these courses. Thanks!
I really appreciate this video because for me personally I'm always looking to develop my skills no matter how much I know or think I know (I'm a full-stack/front-end focused developer). Some of these I can disagree with to a point but find myself agreeing with you on almost everything to a certain degree and I'm sure this is because my experiences are similar to yours but not the same. Either way there are stages that we go through in our professional endeavors and I think this is a comprehensive way to envelop yourself into a successful environment.
These are great and all. But if you are in the process of becoming a junior software engineer you don't need to go through all of this before you apply for jobs. Showing exitement and eager to learn will take you a long way all of this is to help you improve while you are at your first job and want to advance your career. I see so many people claiming that you need to know this and that and then refering you to take courses which in many cases they themselves sell. Sure you can do that but what's most important is that you are out there looking for jobs and learning the process, knowing every little detail about coding is secondary.
I honestly would give a huge credit to Dr Angela Yu whose courses on Web Development literally helped me learn the basics of coding. And I don't think anyone would question Angela Yu's skills as a teacher.
This video again was insightful with all tips.
I started becoming a self taught programmer when I was 14. By the time I got to college, my college courses didn't teach me much on coding, as I already understood the fundamentals. What really helped me to grow, was my first coding job, working under a senior software developer. He helped me learn best practices and how to code in a cleaner, more efficient style, that I wouldn't have learned just working on my own. Now I have been working in software for almost 15 years and I still find that his instruction was invaluable. My biggest recommendation to all junior software developers, or anyone who is getting started with coding, is usually to find a mentor who already knows these clean design styles. Glad to see that you included a course like that in your list!
That’s awesome, thanks for sharing Patrick!
But the mentoring would only help one you understood the fundamentals like you took in the class or learned by your own right?
Still you do need to know what coding is
I'm working my way through several of these, they are long, it takes time and effort. I agree with one of the comments, Colt Steele's Git/Github course is pretty much essential.
Great video. I would recommend courses from Tim Buchalka (Java , API, general programming, etc), Colt Steelee (Git, Web develpment bootcamps, etc) and Mike Meyers (CompTIA).
Harvard CS50 - Full Computer Science University Course on EdEx and also here on the FreeCodeCamp TH-cam channel is absolutely brilliant. The teacher is animated and teaches the material in a structured, clear, and concise way with humor. It starts with at total beginner (no knowledge) and moves on to introduce everything you will need to know to get your career started. When I saw Harvard, I thought it would be way above my head, and it does eventually become quite challenging, but if you follow step-by-step it's totally doable. IMHO
Nice list, most of them I had already, and I started a long DevOps course recently that covers the Linux and Cloud. The "I want to be a Senior" is something really underrated, most developers focus only on technical things and forget that there are a lot of important things in your career besides coding.
Bedsides coding what are those important things in ones career? Can you be more specific
Even though I did take javascript courses, I wouldn't say "every" developer needs it. There are many worlds, not just web dev.
I think you miss some course about Containers like docker or orchestration for containers like k8s .
Thank you so much 👌🏻
Great video! I have been developing for 25+ years and there is always something to learn or to brush up on. These online course are great for Jr developers to get up to speed quickly. Also, they are great for us old timers trying to stay current.
I am learning cybersecurity in a community college. As an experienced person in the field of coding do u think i will need to learn about coding to be successful in cybersecurity
Awesome video ! But I gotta say as a developer I have never in my career touched a Linux system ONCE. So you can be a dev and have only worked on Windows systems. If Azure or other cloud services use Linux in the background or you have the possibility to use them that's fine but I think it's not a requirement to know Linux.
Interesting, thanks for sharing that!
Great work! I will add this to number 10:
1. Computer Organization and Architecture
2. Data Structure & Algorithms in pure C language courses
I have paid for some courses, but found a free course here on TH-cam to be much better. Here's the channel name: Neso Academy. I hope this helps some people.
Thanks for sharing!
I purchased Jonas' Javascript course 2 months ago for $11.50 and bought Angela's 100 days to Code today for $7.50 on Udemy.
I like the idea of having a course as sort of a reference, a textbook or a cheatsheet. It's good if these courses are made with that in mind. Awesome
Can you explain what do you mean as a Cheatsheet? Like what do you reference.
@@GoodByeSkyHarborLive um e.g. a course of setting up an nginx server, a course on mTLS in Java, etc., to revisit when struggling to achieve something in particular. But such a course would have to a wide gradient of information, ranging from the fundamentals to the advanced cases. Usually it's the former, and one has to go build himself the complex picture from the bits on Stackoverflow... Which is inefficient and full of dead ends
I'm about to go back to school for my masters in computer science, 20 years after getting the bachelors. Seeing as how I barely survived the first time around, I was questioning the wisdom of this decision. They're gonna make me take algorithms again and I still have PTSD from when I took it as an undergrad. Of course, we didn't have TH-cam (never mind things like Udemy) back then to help you out. Your recommendation for the algo course on Udemy just might save my ass. I see it has sections on things like dynamic programming, which to this day sends shivers down my spine. So, thanks for this video!
Thank you for this amazing video! Just realized I have 4 out of 10 lol. Also, maybe add a version control course? I landed on a software developer job with Angela's 100 days Python, AWS cloud practitioner course, and a Git course.
Hello, I am transitioning from Economics to Software Development and I wanted to use Udemy as my studying platform. I would appreciate If you could please tell me your experience with Udemy or even advise me about. Would it be sufficient? Thanks
Dr. Angela Yu is so good at Udemy, Right this second I am taking her course on The Complete 2024 Web Development Bootcamp for $12. She is very thoural in her lectures. She breaks down the tasks into small understandable bites. Now I know two of us like her teaching methods.
When a list contains courses like #9, you know it's a great one.
jonas course changed my life i just watched his first two modules of his course and i just understood dart easily .
I think Udemy such a underrated platform to learn and upskill. I took couple of courses by max/academind and I learned a lot. btw thanks for sharing this, this will certainly help.
I paid only 450 rupees ($5.5 ) for their course which is far more lower then most of the platform. By underrated I mean they are providing good courses at very cheap price. I would be happy to give even $100 for their courses. may be its their customer acquisition strategy but they have very good price to knowledge ratio.
Good recommendations. I like that the courses themselves give an outline for what to learn so even if you decide not to take the course, you have a curriculum to follow. That said the recommendation for "I Didn't Get a Computer Science Degree" doesn't actually cover things that are taught in Computer Science. It was more Information Systems/IT focused which is a fine but a bit of a misnomer.
What type or concepts does it cover then? Less data structures and algorithms and more security and network?
Amazing content Travis! I haven't heard abou the 100 days of x courses and just loved the idea, great way to get introduced to a new language and get its common do's and don'ts, thanks for sharing!
To all beginners out there: be very careful with these "advice" - you will not need any courses and do not need to waste your money on them. If you are genuinely interested in the software development fields and very curious, you will get there by yourself (for free) with hard work.
Bro this is the way if
you have money
Free TH-cam courses are mostly dogshit
@@rizkyma5566its not even expensive just wait till its on sale at most 25$ thats like nothing just skip on eating out for a bit and you have enough😭
This is a really silly take. $15 per 20-30hr course is not breaking the bank. If you really want it, you would be afraid to invest $15 for your future career.
$10 to $15 for a 20+ hour course is much cheaper than "doing your own research". I literally built my SRE / DevOps career using these courses spending essentially the equivalent of a trip to Costco.
Those are really great courses shown in the video but these are more targeted towards Web Developers. As a game programmer I would definitely not pick JavaScript course and pick a course about Shaders.
Another course that proves to be EXTREMELY important for anyone who wants to write high performance code is a good course about computer architecture (more specifically CPU: SIMD, caches, how to write cache-friendly code).
Another thing I will do, is look for the structure of the interview-in-python course and study these from the internet (no good reason to waste money when there plenty of free resources for these problems).
Could you recommend some course or website to learn for that
@@iknowyou9201 A great strategy is to check for the highest rated courses in Udemy.
This is an awesome guide, thank you! When I was learning to code I would take so many of these courses and I really loves doing them. However since I have become a full time developer I find it so difficult to find the time to learn outside or work. I have been trying to work through the same course now for the past few months : (
js,100 days of code,cloud,linux,api design,algorithm+interview,sql
Impressive, you really gave me a guideline of which I know will benefit me in the future. No more randomized learning as a self taught developer. Thank you 😊
JavaScript: Understanding the Weird Parts by Anthony Alicea is a great one as well
That is literally the best course on JavaScript The
You should check Colt Steele courses. He makes really great stuff
Yes he does. He’s a great teacher and I have a few of his courses. I’ve recommended his Python courses many times.
There is one important aspect of picking the right Udemy course and that is to actually listen to the preview of each course before buying because some of the instructors have thick accents that you may find hard to understand. Take a minute to see if you can understand them.
I absolutely love this collection and will definitely take them at some point in my learning journey. Of course, udemy can't replace a couple of years studying for a cs degree but it sure provides some clear and fast track way to get an understanding of a certain technology. Big thanks 🤝
Few more resources I would like to recommend on Udemy.
1) For Microservices and Restful Service in Java - Sergey Kargopolov. In28Minutes.
- Sergey has separate courses for microservice architecture and Restful services in Spring boot. Ranga from In28Minutes has one that includes both. Nevertheless, both are comprehensive and worth taking up.
2) For Web development, especially Javascript, Angular and React - Max/Academind
- I took his Angular course 5 yrs ago when I was studying Angular 6. Now he has updated that course to the latest version. Basically, he walks you through a project and you learn the concepts as you are implementing them in the project.
3) Android Development - Denis Panjuta and Paul Dichone
- They have another course for Android Jetpack. Both have complete sections where you build a project that focuses on certain concepts.
4) AWS - Neal Davis and Stephen Maarek
- I am currently doing the one by Neal. Good for beginners or someone who wants to get a taste of the power for AWS
5) System Design - Frank Kane
- Almost every interview contains a System Design round. Frank's course covers every topic you need.
6) Java Masterclass - Tim Buchalka
- Comprehensive. Gives challenges that are interesting and make you think even if you have a hands-on in Java.
Thanks for recommending! Had a couple people here in the comments asking for Java recommendations.
Thanx for the constructive advise. I am starting with the A+ and Python 100 days. I will update you a little later in the year how it goes. Great one
I think for some of these more fundamental subjects (e.g. Linux/SQL) it is better to just buy good books. Way more practical to use them as reference in the future.
Good advice. Many definitely would prefer books.
The best and smartest comment in this whole thread.
What books are good?
Honestly the internet does the same thing and doesn't require keeping a pile of books on hand.
@Travis Hey, I have to tell you I love the 100 Days of Code - The Complete Python Pro Bootcamp! The instructor is very good and detail-oriented. She makes it seem easy, so you have success right from the beginning!
I am taking this course right now and I love it
This is exactly what I want right now, you are so amazing! Thank you so much.
I am NOT a software developer or engineer, but rather in the field of applied math who is looking to become a decent programmer. I agree that Udemy has some excellent courses. Thanks for your suggestions. I have purchased several already.
If im completely new to programming, where exactly should i begin? Im swapping my welding career after working for 10+ hard working years for a shot at this tech industry and want to become somthing greater that i was before. Im just so nervous to learn the wrong things or waste time. It all looks so much fun and interesting but i have no idea what language to begin or what i should do. Any advice?
What Udemy courses do you recommend? What other one(s) should I have included?
you told everything
Maybe one focused on system design
Great video, like it
I don't know if these courses cover it, but programming principles like oop, functional, etc
I think it helps when you can do functional programming in lisp or clojure to be a better programmer in any other language
To avoid big issues like stack trace, and global mutation
Git?? Version Control
Could you recommend a good indepth golang course?
perhaps monitoring tools, like grafana, opsgenie, etc
Need a chart to lay out what should be learned simply at a high level, as once you understand everything at a high level, with a little debugging skills thrown in, you can learn to prompt LLMs to produce your desired code or result from a process.
I'm a horrible coder, but I have built some awesome stuff with the help of LLMs
It's interesting that all of those options broke your $15 rule. 😉
I'm going through a CSS/JS course on Udemy at the moment, so will look at some of those once I've completed that. Ta! 🙂
Idk if you're being sarcastic but when he says you shouldn't pay too much for a course, he's referring to the fact that Udemy has constant "2 hours left!!!" sales that bring the price way down for new users.
@@HandledToaster2 did you not see my using the 😉 emoji?
@@toranshaw4029 I didn't think that meant sarcasm.. the standard sarcasm sign is "/s". For all I know it could've meant condescending, like "Maybe you should've studied better 😉"

I get access to a lot of Udemy courses through my city's library. All courses aren't available, but I always check there first. For anything that isn't available, I load up the cart and check daily for sales.

The 100 days python course is never in sale. Never, ever. I've wishilsted it ages ago and every single time when I check Udemy during the special week sale, the price is always the same. In other hand, Portilla's courses always have some oscillation.

Maybe this other one from Portilla, that was referred by the TH-camr, something lime zero to hero, José Portilla.
Thanks Travis, I missed the 25-26 Jan codes, but went through your blog article for finding coupons. Took me longer than I'd have liked to find a code that worked for the courses I wanted, but eventually found one that brought most of my cart down to the $11-$16 range you suggested. Thanks for the tips!
Because of maximilian schwarzmüller, jonas schmedtmann, andrei neagoie and stephen grider, I got my first Full Stack Web Developer Job.
impostor syndrome: This is a good video to show you the path. Always trust yourself and know your abilities. Back yourself on what you know, I been developer over 25 years and still trying to catch on the tech, obviously, tech will always be changing, your mind set is the most important thing. Understand what is impostor syndrome, don't be victim of it. Get yourself a job where you can learn and use skills. Money should be second priority. Do not play catch up with the tech. Know your path, what you want to be, general knowledge of most stuff is good, but trying to specialise in each, is impostor syndrome.
Sir, I am in a dilemma between choosing '100 Days of Code' by Dr Angela Yu and 'The Complete Python Bootcamp' by Jose Portilla. Please kindly pick one for me!!
very informational video Travis... from my side, I'm on an AWS cloud/5G network/business analysis 12 months Learnership. for the past 2 month, I've managed to cover as much AWS services, learnt Linux (for the first time). Linux is also found on the AWS canvas documentation, which also covers the basics of python programming.
0:40 I have A LOT of udemy courses on my wish list and I own a lot too 😅😅😅 I was wondering would it be weird if I had a LARGE number of udemy course certificates on my CV/resume or on my linkedIn page 🤔 what would employers think of that
Question for everyone. I’m a new software developer. With all of the new AI tools Microsoft is releasing through Azure, would you say if you haven’t learned either to go with Azure? Or, would you still recommend AWS or maybe Google Cloud? I would love to hear reasons for one or the other!
Just started 100 Days of python with Angela Yu per your recommendation on an older video. REALLY GOOD!
There is no need to buy all of these courses in order to learn these technologies, there is always free alternatives, you can find good video tutorial on TH-cam for pretty much every courses and that's how I learn,
It's okay to buy a one course you really into, and you really think that will boost your productivity and help your career
Thank you so much for the recommendation. I'm currently half way on 100 days of Python by Angela Yuu, but there are just too many things to learn.
At least this allows me to plan ahead and know what courses to take.
You dont have to do the 100 days of Python in 100 days. I’ve only used this course as a starting point for projects and I went off and did my own thing.
You know the interesting thing is that its very clear that you exist in the part of the world where there is no big deal on whether you do have a computer science degree or not so long you're productive and can enrich yourself through constant accumulation of courses and certificates. I agree with the comments below that perhaps the stage two of this video is to describe the technology stack that goes with each language and exactly how do languages get to be leveraged, more specifically in what domains. For example java and c# are mainly used in enterprise applications hence you'll find them mostly usd in banks insurance companies e.t.c. But you will seldom use them in the flying of drones or in raspberry pi and Arduino projects. JavaScript is surprisingly soaring on the market perhaps its due to the discovery that it can be used on the web just as much as it can be used on. But I enjoyed your insight and I will add on some concepts according to your advise. Much appreciated, keep up the good work
For those embedded type applications you're probably going to use C. Or even assembler on very constrained processors.
People in the US regularly complain about being a certification treadmill. Employers expected employees to do training outside work hours and to pay for it themselves. So maybe not that great.
Max/Academind courses are well taught but the thing I really dislike is every couple months he will upload 1 or 2 files to keep the course looking new but can have content that's 5, 6 years old or older. Especially with frameworks like React or Angular that are in active development, 5 years is an eternity. I purchased a class that said 2022 but had content literally dated 2016. As any developer can tell you React and Angular are very different beasts than they were 8 years ago.
Thank you for giving a shout out to Jonas 1:59 . I love his courses
I am a fan of Colt Steele. Structured, fun, practical and updated. At some point, I got some courses just because I loved his teaching and thought I might be interested in the theme in the future.
These are all good recommendations. I am a front end web dev but I still have to use most/all of the skills taught in these courses, even if only in an infrequent/surface level capacity, on some occasion at my job.
I know exactly what I have to do to level up, I am not a newbie and I have a job but just end up playing video games all day
Good tips, one of the things I do before to select a course is see what say people that give a low rate of qualify, then I can understand if these things will me affet or not. The most important tip that you give here is to read the course content and the needed 10 topics that we need to cover. Thanks.
Unfortunately this video did not age very well
All the courses on Udemy jumped about 10x in price, and they seem to want to push into paying a monthholy fee for plan to get access to the "best" content on the platform
10:08 He changed the title to 2023 but didn't even bother to update the course itself since 2021. Most of them change a single file to at least trick us the code has been updated.
I love how you just throw out there that "this stuff is over my head" that's how i know i can trust you.
Your API Design course chapter overlaps your SQL discussion chapter in your timeline. Well done on the vid!
i have to say one of the courses you missed was about the different UML diagrams In my opinion they are really important to work on a project and provide its stability over the time
For me the best web development instructors on Udemy are
Jonas Schmedtmann, Maximilian Schwarzmüller, Brad Traversy and zero to mastery guys
OKAYYY YOU REALLY HELPED ME, A BRAZILIAN SYSTEMS INFORMATION BACHELORS STUDENT (: i am into the first semester and university is not going as fast as i want so i want to take the time i have to learn more your list make it clear and surely its a very very solid base) i implemented two more courses that match my degree but i hope helps others and even you when you release the next version of this video
1.networking focused course (dont need to be a huge course. just a trusted mentor is enough to make you understand thing and maybe try a low level cisco certificate)
2.devops
again thank you.
A git / github course. A next.js course and 2 backend course , one Node and the second could be any python/ php/ ruby/ java /go backend framework.
What about Angela Yu's Web Development Course
After completing my java course, I need to decide between javascript or the linux course. Dunno what to begin with or even if it‘s a good idea to learn both at the same time. Meaning 1 day JS, 2nd day linux and so forth.
After consideration, after I finished my Java course, I will go with the linux course as I can use the knowledge on my current job since we got several linux machines (webservers, index and the backend server). After that JS.
Learn Azure (since it’s cheaper) and Terraform!
I can recommend the first two... I would also recommend a course from Maximilian Schwarzmüller on one of the major frontend frameworks.
Anything from Coding Addict is gem. I learnt a lot from him especially Nodejs
the only problem with Udemy is the fact that sometimes courses that were good 3 years ago (and got good reviews back then) become outdated and are hard to follow along. Since they are not unlisted and there is no warnings - you might run into a course that is just too old, but still has high ratings. Another bad practice - reuploaded courses, that look new, but are actually outdated.
So, always check those bad reviews to catch those cases.
It is less of a problem for "conceptual" courses, but if it is about rapidly developed framework , where things get deprecated, and new practices are introduced etc - then it might be a problem .
What about UML? Is there no place in your developer world for UML. Doesn't anybody do diagramming? What about UseCase? What about class diagrams? What about ER diagrams?
I so very much agree with you! I haven’t heard so far anyone bash Udemy but I won’t listen to anyone who does become I personally have learned MUCH on there to do what I need to do and to excel where I need to excel. Love Udemy and many many times they run sales almost all the time making a $100 course to be $20! Anyways haha. I’ll finish watching your video!
Hi, You should make a similar list for a DevOps engineers. One or two tools from each vertical in the DevOps periodic table and best courses on them. That would be a treat :-)
Maybe adding a Product Management related course would've also been helpful
Wouldn't be Harvard CS50 better for "I didn't get computer science degree"? Because Comptia is all about Network Hardware and Structure but not programming
Yes, but it is free so the maker of the video can't earn commission.
Any recommendations for a UI/UX or Figma course? Feel like that might be a helpful skill to develop
Thank you for this list. Can you recommend maybe in which order it will be beneficial to learn or do these courses in?
Outstanding! A course on the basics of Data Science/Machine Learning/Deep Learning/Artificial Intelligence will become important in every field. Sooner or later, every industry will be embedding some commercial or open source ML\DL capability into every software application. You need to understand the general concepts behind Data Science, not how to use the many different ML/DL frameworks but a conversational understanding.
