Tutorials, tips, advice, information helps a lot. While these things can be written they can also be in a video which some or most people find easier to understand and move along with.
As a designer and/or a front-end developer, YouTube can play an important role in your career. For example, if you wanted to learn how to use Figma to design prototypes, there are videos to guide you on that.
One of the benefits of video tutorials is the face-to-face learning atmosphere it provides. When watching these videos you feel like the instructor is there with you in your room or office. See more benefits of video tutorials.
Finding a good YouTube channel that is focused on UI/UX designs and/or Front-End web development can be tedious. That is why I have outlined these 20+ YouTube channels for front-end web developers and/or UI/UX designers.
Now, these YouTube channels are all active and they all have their uniqueness. Some of them are focused on improving your UI/UX design using Figma or Adobe XD as the case may be, some of them give you useful information on design trends that keeps you inspired.
Others give useful advice on career paths, getting clients, making money, etc. Some others are focused on your front-end web development skills for example with CSS. So I would recommend you check as many as you can.
And of course, some are "all in one" package. So they are all unique, that's the beautiful thing. So head up to their channels and subscribe.
