40 Web Developers to Follow on Twitter

Treehouse●Code 231 Comments

Update: You can now follow this list with just one click. Head over to the @carsonified/top-web-devs list.

I’ve been on Twitter since 2006 (@ryancarson) and it’s where I get all my news these days. It’s important to know who to follow in order to get the best advice, tips and news.

Here’s a list of the top web developers on Twitter (in no particular order). I’ll also be publishing lists for web designers, entrepreneurs and ‘generally interesting’ people.

[Updated: I've added some new names that should've made the first cut!]

I wasn’t able to fit everyone on this list, so please feel free to make suggestions in the comments.

    Well done! You created a reasonably long list which makes it possible to actually check them all out without spending half a day. ;) I do miss one brilliant tweeting web dev in your list though and that's @pixelprodigy who tweets plenty of useful resources and tips&trix around web development as well as web design. :)

    Nice list of tweeps developers should follow on Twitter.

  • http://www.safetygoat.co.uk kat neville

    Nice list, but a lot of these people seem to be very close to “web designer”– a few that I know of just do css/html, which puts them on a close line (developers are always telling me that just doing html/css is lightweight development…very little actually logic just for display). Sad to not see that they're not all “proper coders”, especially since you said you're going to do a separate list for web designers anyway. Is there really not 40 great (solely) web developers out there to follow?

    Hey Kat – You're right, the lines often blur. However, I included folks that definitely wouldn't be considered designers (Molly H and Eric Meyer for example). Feel free to make any suggestions though.

      Is Xeni Jardin @xenijardin a Web Developer?? She’s a tv personality/blogger/journalist right?

      I check on wikipedia and nothing there say that she or was a developer or even a designer. Or maybe you could give some highlights about her developer experience.

      Thanks..

  • http://www.aspendew.com C

    Great list – can I suggest adding @malarky, @brucel, and @chrisspooner to the list? They are some of my favourites :)

    Yea, it's a hard line– I don't actually have many notorious web developers I follow, just web developer mates (who are brilliant, but not that famous). I'm surprised @elliottkember didn't get on your list… he's usually pretty fun to follow, but I can appreciate you trying to get others on the list first :)

    Nice list, thanks. It would have been nice to have the devs identified by what they are into. I had to read each ones bio and visit the site before deciding to follow or not (the ones I did not know that is).

    Is this just a list of developers on twitter? What is the actual criteria to be listed? Is there one? While some are well known, others are not so much and, I assume, simply added because of their popularity rather than skill. Have you reviewed their code?There are thousands of fantastic apps and code around and this list can't come anywhere near to listing all of them and seems to just be a popularity contest rather than a “useful” list.I imagine the designer list will be easier to create as their work can be viewed, but the work done behind the scenes is not as easy to review.

    How glamorous! Follow their tweets, take part in their famous life! And maybe, one day, one of them will start following you!

    The list is completely subjective, but the basic criteria was whether or not they had built something high-profile and successful.

    It's a mixed bag. This is definitely not what I'd call a list of web developers. I see designers, evangelists, both back-end and front-end people, user interaction designers and probably more different professions in this list.While most of these people are definitely worth following, this list is definitely NOT 'a list of web developers'.

    Dion Almaer is one of the few who actually talks about the craft on Twitter – and since he's at the heart of the Firefox machine, worth following.This list contains lots of cool people, but many don't actually discuss web development much. Follow them – of course! – but better for banter & small talk than professional purpose.One day you should have a mobile developer list too. There are more than a few gurus on Twitter who are opening up that frontier as we speak.

    May be I am too old (I am 36) , but I don't get the point. Why is twitter so popular. I spent a while on it and all I can say it: it's BORING!

    Some do, some don't – some talk about webdev *part* of the time. But even if they're not all webdev all the time, they're good to have as resources if you get stuck, need inspiration, etc. I have lots of industry people on my follow list. Not all of them talk shop 24/7, but I like that too.

    What makes someone a “top web developer”? Is it the company they work for (Apple, Google …) or is it because they have a blog that a lot of people visit? I was just wondering where this list came from. You didn't explain that in the blog post. Thanks.

    Nice list, but a lot of these people seem to be very close to “web designer”– a few that I know of just do css/html, which puts them on a close line (developers are always telling me that just doing html/css is lightweight development…very little actually logic just for display).
