Lars Röttig
This channel is quite new on YouTube, but the content is a top niche when it comes to Magento development and Progressive Web Application topics. A great selection of practical tutorials and how-to videos around GraphQL, PWA Studio. It is a must-have channel to watch if you are looking to learn how to build ReactJS or VueJS storefronts.

The IWD Agency YouTube channel provides a variety of topics around e-commerce platforms. It includes Shopify, BigCommerce, WooCommerce, and Magento. The channel has almost 2 000 subscribers. IWD Agency talks about different versions of Magento, comparisons with other platforms, and so on. Funny thing to notice that the channel’s URL is Interiorwebdesign.

SwiftOtter, Inc
Probably one of the well-known YouTube channels around Magento certifications. Joseph Maxwell created this channel to help Magento developers learn Magento 2 ins and outs. In his videos, Joseph covers developer topics and discusses how to pass Magento certifications, opinions around the platform.
Most recently, the SwiftOtter channel started a video series called Smash the Bug podcast. The new podcast helps developers to cover the most critical aspect of a job – debugging.
Ecommerce Aholic
I couldn’t miss the Ecommerce Aholic channel on YouTube. This is probably the most artistic and TV program-like channel I know. An author of the Ecommerce Aholic channel, TJ Gamble, shows how to drink and talk about e-commerce at the same time. Sometimes he tastes alcoholic drinks in front of a camera and discusses e-commerce. TJ is also known as a guy with a million different video and camera devices for his videos. His videos, in my opinion, the most expensive ones and nice to watch. It is not a surprise, that Ecommerce Aholic has more than 4 300 subscribers.
Back to the topic. Ecommerce Aholic channel provides videos around Magento from a Merchant point of view. You won’t find developer videos, however, TJ Gamble gives his honest, sometimes clickbait opinions of the platform and Magento ecosystem in general.
This is the most active channel and videos come very often. Don’t forget to subscribe to not miss a new one.
Max Pronko
Max Pronko channel has been created to cover Magento 2 development topics. It shouldn’t be a surprise, that Mage Mastery educational portal has been evolved from this YouTube channel. With over 7 700 subscribers and more than 250 videos, this channel is the most development-centric. You can find videos on Magento 2 fundamentals, different customizations of the Magento 2 platform, and Max’s experience on how to work with Magento.
One of the most popular playlists on Max’s channel is Magento DevChannel with Max Pronko. It includes 200 videos about Magento 2 development and customizations.
Max Pronko channel has a variety of different topics, there is no single theme to follow, apart from the fact, that 90% of videos are about development. You can learn a lot when it comes to Magento 2, however, you may still need to read official Magento documentation and do lots of practice.
