Top 37 YouTube Channels for Laravel and PHP...

Introduction

As a Laravel and PHP developer, it's important to stay up-to-date with the latest PHP best practices, trends, and techniques in the industry. One great way to do this is by subscribing to YouTube channels that offer valuable content for developers.

In this blog post, I've compiled a list of the top 37 YouTube channels that I think Laravel and PHP developers should consider subscribing to.

Not all the channels solely cover Laravel and PHP content, but I do believe that each of these channels will provide value to you in some form or another. In my opinion, whether you're a seasoned developer or new to the web development world, I think you'll be able to find at least one new channel here to teach you something new.

These channels provide awesome Laravel tutorials and some even offer huge, free Laravel courses to help you learn Laravel online.

Are there any channels missing that you think should be on this list? Drop a comment below or get in touch with any suggestions, and I'll be sure to update the list!

In no particular order, here are the top 37 YouTube channels that I'd recommend subscribing to:
