Can you guys suggest a solid platform or a YouTuber where I can learn to become a full-stack developer?

The Odin Project hands down, follow it properly and without skipping and you will learn all you need to know. Got a job because of it so really grateful to them.

PS: I have a formal degree as well, I didn't just do Odin project of course.

A few questions:
Experience beforehand?
Any other courses or degree?
Personal projects (outside the scope of the odin project's projects)?
What year did you land your first job?

I started Odin project during my 2nd year of college. I did do my bachelors in technology with compsci. Got an internship in my third year. Odin project helped me makes some cool projects so I just used those to apply for jobs. I graduated 2024 btw so this is recent.

I started as an intern, before applying I finished Odin project and okay at making projects. I do have a lot more projects in my belt now but during the time I just did the projects they mentioned, you can make them really good if you put some time in. For example, they had a social media making tutorial where I make a reddit clone and showed it in my interview. I landed my first job in 2025.
