Why DevTube?

DevTube contains the best 350+ tech talks from different sources โ€“ @eduardsi's personal favorites, github lists, YouTube most liked.

๐Ÿ”– Create lists โ€“ Watch later, bookmark, and keep track of watched videos.

โค๏ธ Contribute โ€“ Get karma for video contributions. Your name will also be visible next to the video.
