About the channel
What if it ships
Ghost Dev Explains is a YouTube channel for developers who learn by building. Every tutorial is delivered in Hinglish/Roman Urdu — simple enough for a beginner, deep enough for a working dev. No slide decks: we open the terminal, containerize a real app, push it to the cloud, break something, and fix it on camera.
The method
Each video has one job: get you from “I sort of get it” to “I deployed it.” The written companion post on this site covers the same steps, so you can follow along without pausing a video.
Hindi mein samjhao. Code mein dikhao.
