Fireship

Fireship is a programming channel created by Jeff Delaney. It began with quick code tutorials and is the original home of the 100 Seconds of Code series, which explains a language or tool in under two minutes. It also runs the regular Code Report on tech news.

The videos are short, dense and full of jokes. Recent uploads focus heavily on artificial intelligence: new models, research, security problems and how developers are using AI tools. Older videos explain languages, frameworks and computer science ideas in a few minutes each. The pace is quick, so it works best for viewers with some coding experience.

Some highlights include:

An experiment building the same game with two different AI models, comparing how well each one handles a real coding task.

A look at prompt injection, a security problem for AI agents, and an old idea that might help solve it.

A report on new research into language models, explaining what the researchers changed and why it matters.

The channel has around 4.3 million subscribers.

Software engineering changes fast, and Fireship is one way to keep up. It shows the tools and ideas working developers talk about. It suits students already learning to code who are considering computer science, software engineering or AI. The news coverage moves quickly, so it is best paired with slower, deeper tutorials.
