11 podcasts for the frontend developer
I’m a huge fan of continuing education, and one of the ways I binge on information is through podcasts. Here’s a list of 11 podcasts that I find not only educational but entertaining as well.
- JS Party - From the folks at Changelog, this weekly, hour-ish podcast focusing on JavaScript features a rotating panel and format.
- Front End Happy Hour - A bunch of developers drinking and talking about development. What could go wrong?
- Developer Tea - This podcast is more about the human element of development. I recommend this to developers of all levels, but especially beginners.
- FSJam Podcast - Fullstack Jamstack conversations with developers, library maintainers, and industry thought leaders.
- 99% Invisible - It’s not all dev-centric podcasts here. 99% Invisible peels back the curtain on the design of everyday things. The flag episode is a classic.
- Full Stack Radio - Adam Wathan, creator of (among other things) Tailwind, hosts this podcast with a focus on all the things happening on the front end.
- Hidden Brain - This fascinating podcast delves into why we do the things we do and how we can learn from that. It’s honestly one of my favs.
- React Podcast - It’s about React. So…
- ShopTalk Show - Chris Coyier (CSS-Tricks) and Dave Rupert (Paravel) host this quirky podcast (mostly) about frontend. This podcast was my first developer podcast ever and still one of my favorites.
- Syntax - Hosted by Wes Bos and Scott Tolinski, I highly recommend this podcast if you are new to JavaScript. It’s chock-full of tips and sick picks.
- Freakonomics Radio - Again, a podcast about humans for humans. This one has a strong focus on Behavioral Economics, the cross-section of psychology and econ.
