8 Newsletters You Don't Want to Miss
A big thank you to curators, newsletters are great way to consume filtered and qualified content. As readers, we just need to choose from many and try to be a loyal audience.
Most of us already know GitHub, HN, PH and similar digestions. I would like to list the ones that I follow with pleasure for a long time. Please feel free to add the ones you like.
Frame
I am a mobile application developer. Also, want to stay sharp in related fields like backend/frontend development. If I can’t, at least I want to stay up to date.
We are all aware that there are too many headlines to follow. OS updates, new devices with new screen sizes, new ui/ux trends, popular patterns etc. To frame all, I’ve included not only developer-related ones, but technology-related ones as well.
Let’s begin
1) TLDR Newsletter
Content: Tech 📱, science 🚀, and coding 💻
Frequency: Daily
Reading Time: 3–4 mins for the titles and summary
This is by far my favorite one. It shows the dominating subject in daily or weekly trends with a title and a summary format. The details of the subject is the optional content to read, it’s up to your interest but following titles is quite informative.
2) Exploding Topics
Content: Trending topics, expert insight and analysis
Frequency: Weekly
Reading Time: 2–3 mins
Exploding Topics, a SaaS tool, offers discovering the topics before they become popular. Plus, they have a free newsletter.
It is not always easy to catch whether something is a new trend or a hype. ET may help reducing the noise with graphics and valuable data.
3) Remote Work
Content: Product tips around remote working
Frequency: Weekly
Reading time: 6–7 mins
Although, remote work is a new concept for the pandemic world, I’m quite familiar over the years like many others. Hrishikesh, the curator, is doing tremendous jobs to providing content to get used to working from home. Also, there are discount coupons for the featured products 🎉.
There is archive feature. Lastly, you can list your product as well.
Bonus: If remote working is a topic that you’re interested in, you may want to check WWR.
Android
4) The Weekly Authority
Content: featuring news, reviews, deals and expert opinions about Android
Frequency: Weekly (also offers daily)
Reading time: 8–10 mins
Android ecosystem includes many brands and products. Unfortunately this means more issues while developing an app. This list is great to see the ideas for these products and their effects on the ecosystem.
5) Kotlin Weekly
Content: Kotlin
Frequency: Weekly
Reading time: 3–4 mins
Kotlin community is getting bigger. Yay! And so is the content. If you’re an android developer, you should definitely subscribe to it.
6) Android Weekly
Content: Again Android but in development
Frequency: Weekly
Reading time: 8–9 mins
AW is a great way to catch up tutorials, videos, repos. It’s such a good list that you want to read them all right away.
Apple/iOS
7) UseYourLoaf
Content: iOS and Swift
Frequency: Weekly
Reading: 6–7 mins
An excerpt from the page is enough to explain the content:
Are you an iOS developer interested in learning what’s new but struggling to keep up? Maybe you’re also a little tired of watching all those WWDC videos?
8) iOS Dev
Content: iOS Development
Frequency: Weekly
Reading: Avg. 10 mins
