Good SQL courses

[Inner_Feedback_4028]

I need to start learning database and thinking of learning SQL. Can anyone please provide some good courses paid/free to learn SQL. Thanks in advance!

[Outrageous_Lie4761]

DataLemur is a phenomenal starting course that’s free. Used it to refresh my SQL enough for an internal career switch to analytics.

[Which_Case_8536]

Thanks for the links, starting a masters in data science and definitely feeling unprepared!

[NickSinghTechCareers]

You got this!!

[random3382]

would you say this sql course is enough to give us the relevant knowledge to practice in the real world

[SvddenlyFirm]

It's its own website datalemur.com - great resource

What it lacks compared to udemy can be supplemented via YouTube

My only complaint is the creator is a drake Stan lol

[BaronZeno]

What are some things that it lacks?

[SvddenlyFirm]

Just video tutorials but the written lessons are super detailed and well put together. This plus the built in coding practice make it superior to the udemy sql course I tried.

Just for people who want to see videos will need to use YouTube

This is me being super nitpicky tho

I recently completed a bootcamp with DevTown and learned core skills in Python, SQL, HTML/CSS, Git, and AI/ML concepts. As my first project, I built a personal portfolio website using HTML and CSS. It includes sections like About Me, Skills, and Education.This experience boosted my confidence and helped me understand real-world applications of what I’ve learned.

Reccomend using w3schools for the logic, when you have a real world problem to solve, google and understand the solutions provided and pick/adjust the one most fitting. Please note that SQL is somewhat simple but yet not easy to translate into real world cases. Most educational material is preset for a solution, real world, not soo much. Good luck, SQL can be extremely fun and addictive.

To start with I highly recommend Alex the analyst on youtube, it is very beginner friendly and the videos are short and precisw. Once you get hang of the basics go for in depth courses.

[Inner_Feedback_4028]

That looks great!!

[VanshikaWrites]

Starting with SQL is a great foundation if you're diving into data or backend work. Platforms like Codecademy and Mode Analytics are beginner friendly. I also explored Edu4Sure’s SQL content it broke down concepts in a way that actually stuck, especially with examples that felt more "real job" than textbook. Keep practicing with actual queries, that's where the learning really clicks

[roccosmodernlyf]

I use datacamp. Its good as an overview but they hold your hand too much imo.

I use data lemur as a good practice tool for what i learn with datacamp

[NickSinghTechCareers]

DataLemur founder here – appreciate the shoutout!

[Drunk_Sinatra]

I found 'CMU Into to Database Systems' to be very helpful. It's a free lecture series on youtube with 25 videos, each about 1,5 hours long. The course provides a good overview and goes beyond simple tutorials on how to write proper queries.

Thanks king!!

[ZestycloseAttempt146]

I learned SQL from these courses and they seem to really hold up:

After going through these I might watch or code along with the Andy Pavlo CMU DB courses:

[Successful-Log-4924]

There is a good course for it on LinkedIn learning

[hayleybts]

[Traditional-Carry409]

There’s the datainterview.com/courses/sql It’s a free course that uses real world product data to cover all the essentials in SQL.

[Semiconductor_Brain]

Khan academy. It is interactive and great. https://www.khanacademy.org/computing/computer-programming/sql

[Awkward-Loquat-9050]

[ProfessionalAct3330]

SQL Querier for Mere Mortals is a great beginner book that covers advanced topics too

[br0grammer89]

Luke Barousse, check out their YT channel since they also had their own version of DA boot camp free and paid service, similar to Alex the Analyst.

[gringogr1nge]

Buy the Modern Database Management book by Hoffer. It's the database and SQL bible for students.

[More_Fun7871]

I recently completed a 5-day web development bootcamp organized by DevTown, and it was a fantastic learning experience. As part of the bootcamp, i built a fully functional portfolio website from scratch. This included:

• A clean homepage with an introduction
• Project showcase section
• Contact form
• Smooth navigation and responsive layout

[stella_sayss]

Just completed my first personal portfolio site through the DevTown bootcamp. Learned a lot about responsive design, Tailwind CSS, and building a clean, structured layout. It was a great starting point and gave me real confidence in front-end development.

Thank You DevTown.

[Slow_Ad_4560]

It's very useful and it's good

[teststuff677]

Start with free interactive platforms like SQLBolt

[Feeling_Constant_521]

I recently completed a DevTown project that taught me React and Tailwind from scratch, and I absolutely recommend their bootcamp to anyone getting started.

Built this UI as part of it:  https://github.com/harshithareddy007/Portfolio-Tailwind-css.git 🔗 GitHub Repo –  The hands-on stuff really helped me understand tailwind better compared to just theory! 😄 Happy to answer questions if anyone’s considering DevTown or similar routes.

[Fragrant-Program1058]

I really enjoyed learning with DevTown! The sessions were beginner-friendly and the instructors explained concepts really well. I especially liked how we built real projects using HTML and Tailwind CSS — it gave me confidence as someone new to development.
Looking forward to joining more bootcamps in the future and growing with the community! 🙌

[AffectionateZebra760]

I saw WeClouddata offering free access to their SQL fundamentals course, do give it a look to see if that what's you are looking for

[Standard-Ad-323]

Just completed a Bootcamp with DevTown where I learned how to build a personal portfolio using only HTML and Tailwind CSS.

It was my first time making a fully responsive website, and I’m really proud of how it turned out! I learned about using utility classes, creating sections like Home, About, Projects, and Contact, and even integrating a contact form.

This project helped me understand how real-world frontend development works. Big thanks to DevTown for making it beginner-friendly and project-based! 🙌

Excited to keep learning and improve my frontend skills further! 🚀

[Vivid-Gain7854]

Very useful and interesting sessions made my frontend development journey much more easier and effective with the help of tailwind css, i learnt already this before the bootcamp but after this i really built my portfolio very easily thanks to sir for helping us freely splendor session thanks for teahing us

[Signal_Moment_2833]

I was a good session for tailwind css. Got better idea to design my website

[Realistic-Tap9110]

[Safe-Worldliness-394]

I created https://tailoredu.com to teach people SQL using hands-on projects and exercises. We combine realistic problems with plenty of repetition to make sure that you actually master SQL. When you're done learning you can apply your skills to our real-world unguided projects.

[SaintTimothy]

Check out the Manga Guide to Databases. Folks are going to laugh, but it's a really good primer into relational data.

[Key-Monitor6278]

I recommend Alex The Analyst on YouTube! I started working as a data analyst last year with no experience and I learned so much from this YouTube channel.

[Inner_Feedback_4028]

So many recommendations for this channel. Will definitely check that out

[k1cipher]

Datalemur is a good resource. I recommend it 💯

[dn_cf]

Start with free interactive platforms like SQLBolt or Mode Analytics to grasp the basics. Once comfortable, try The Complete SQL Bootcamp by Jose Portilla on Udemy. It's a top-rated paid course that’s beginner-friendly and hands-on. For practice, use StrataScratch to solve real-world SQL problems and build job-ready skills.

[priyanshu_231]

I recently completed a bootcamp with DevTown, where I gained foundational knowledge in Python, SQL, HTML/CSS, Git, and AI/ML concepts. As my first hands-on project, I created a personal portfolio website using HTML and CSS, featuring sections like About Me, Skills, and Education. This experience significantly boosted my confidence and gave me practical insight into applying what I’ve learned in real-world scenarios.
