About

Hosted by Wes Bos and Scott Tolinski since 2017, Syntax has published over 900 podcast episodes on full-stack web development, covering everything from HTML, CSS, JavaScript, server side languages, databases, deployment environments, and more.

Constantly learning, he creates web development courses focused on JavaScript, TypeScript, React, CSS, Node.js and whatever else comes his way. Scott Tolinski is co-host of Syntax and the creator of Level Up Tutorials. In his free time Scott is a dedicated Bboy (breakdancer) & enjoys pushing himself athletically through dance, working out and snowboarding. CJ joined the team to help make YouTube videos that dive deeper into topics covered on the podcast. He is a full stack software developer and the host of Coding Garden.
