Why Follow the Bricks Scene
Bricks releases major features every few months — the 2.x series alone added a Color Manager, Style Manager, Builder Profiles and AI abilities. If you only learn from search results, you’re always six months behind what the builder can do. Following the people below closes that gap: you’ll hear about releases the day they ship, see new workflows from people who build with Bricks daily, and find answers faster than forum searches.
This list is the media map we use ourselves — official sources first, then the creators with real track records.
Official Channels
| Channel | What it gives you | Link |
|---|---|---|
| Bricks Builder Blog | Product news, feature announcements, case studies | bricksbuilder.io/blog |
| Changelog | Every version’s full release notes — read before updating | bricksbuilder.io/changelog |
| Bricks Academy | Official documentation, updated with every release | academy.bricksbuilder.io |
| Bricks on YouTube | Official video tutorials and feature walkthroughs | YouTube: Bricks Builder |
The changelog is the single most underrated resource — we check it with every new release and base our update reviews on it.

These are the creators the Bricks community actually learns from. Sorted roughly by “how much you’ll learn per hour”:

Note: creator handles and channels occasionally change. If a link is stale, search the creator’s name — their content moves, their reputation doesn’t.

How to Stay Updated
The lazy-but-effective setup: follow the changelog + one aggregator (bricksy.org does the weekly roundup), and one creator whose style matches how you learn — Kevin Geary for systems thinking, BricksLabs for code-level answers. Everything else is bonus.
If you’re just starting, pair this list with the terminology glossary so the jargon in these channels doesn’t slow you down. And when a release lands that matters, we’ll cover it here first.
