I'd recommend The Coding Train as well.

I'm also a big fan of The New Boston, he is responsible for my career in a lot of ways. He was the first channel I watched to learn to code and stuck with him for years whilst working.

I really dislike Derek Banas. All of his videos are just way too shallow and basically just explain some of the syntax of a language. I wouldn't even recommend his videos if you just wanted to get a rough idea of a language, because he can't even get that across. 2/10 wouldn't recommend.

The 'Fun Fun Function' author has taken a break from his channel due to this there is no new video has been uploaded from almost a year.

So, might be you can replace this from a different channel.
