Creating educational videos developers actually want to watch"
In this talk, Block’s Anthony Giuliano shares how he went from making forgettable tutorials to building developer videos that truly teach. He retraces the moment a “Firebase in 100 seconds” video turned his confusion into confidence, showing why comprehension—not production value—is what makes educational content effective. From scripting for clarity to applying learning science and smart editing, Anthony shows that what matters most isn’t polish, it’s helping developers genuinely get it.
