I started a software Youtube channel 2 days ago [1], so I went down the rabbit hole of finding the best tools, best way to record, etc.
I first thought of using a presentation tool like keynote, but it can be limiting if you want to make more complex content, like showing browser tabs, drawing diagrams, etc.
If your content is more technical, I think is best to just record your screen and show the command line or editor. Most people use OBS to record the screen and show your face at the same time. You can explain things with a diagram tool like excalidraw. Theprimeagen and "Theo - t3․gg" work that way, they first make a live stream, then edit that stream into a Youtube video.
> where can I find royalty free music and clips
If your content is more "infotainment" like Fireship, he explains his way of making videos here [2] and this video also goes into his process more [3]
