A lot of people keep asking me how to get started with shaders, VFX, and generally how to get good with game graphics, so here's a thread of devs and resources that will help you on your journey :) #Gamedev #VFX #indiegame

First, if you are just starting out, make sure you check this article by @John_O_Really. It talks about vertex displacement and also works as a great introduction to shadergraph in general. https://blogs.unity3d.com/2018/10/05/art-that-moves-creating-animated-materials-with-shader-graph/
@ManuelaXibanya has a great collection of tutorials that are specially made for people who don't know anything about shaders. You can't miss them https://github.com/Xibanya/ShaderTutorials
@totallyRonja also has a lot of tutorials and most of them have a clear goal from the beginning, so if you're looking to achieve something specific, definitely check her website. https://www.ronja-tutorials.com/
If you are looking for inspiration, @HarryAlisavakis every now and then shares a collection of tweets showcasing beautiful art from all around the world. Super cool stuff!

I'll admit I'm too noob for understanding most of her content, but @FreyaHolmer has some really deep and cool videos about tech art. She also did Shader Forge and is about to release Shapes, a vector graphics library for Unity.
@JanvandenHemel makes 60-second tutorials for blender. I don't use blender a lot but they are great for understanding workflows that you can carry to your preferred software https://www.blendersecrets.org/
And I think that's it. Of course, there's a lot more info out there but I don't really remember it right now
