Jeff Delaney is a GDE (Google Developer Expert) and owner of the extremely popular YouTube channel Fireship, with 500k+ subscribers. He also owns the channel’s complementary website fireship.io, where the main coding topics covered are Angular, React, Firebase, Flutter, and a varied array of topics such as RxJS, Docker, Electron, COBOL, Deno, CSS Grid, and too many more to mention.

Jeff’s videos are well received for their superbly succinct style and beautiful production quality, which is unusual in the world of coding tutorials. Just look at the production quality in this recent video: 2021 Tech Trends & Predictions for Developers.

Most of his subscribers will concur that a defining feature of his videos is their blazing fast pace. Topics that might take any other programmer 30 minutes to cover, can be covered by Jeff in a tongue-in-cheek 100 seconds. I kid you not. Have a look at these:

Flutter in 100 seconds
Vue.js Explained in 100 Seconds
Docker in 100 Seconds
The full 100 second playlist
