About

Solo developer from Paris. I spent 6 months building Dumble — an AI-powered IDE with 146 features and 12 world firsts. Dumble lets anyone build websites, apps, legal contracts, and business documents without writing a single line of code. My mission: make technology accessible to everyone, not just developers. Bootstrapped. No team. No investors.

AMA — I built Dumble alone from Paris in 6 months. Ask me anything!

Hey everyone! I'm Eric Benamara, the solo developer behind Dumble. 6 months ago, I started building an AI-powered IDE from my apartment in Paris. No team, no funding, no investors. Just me and an idea. Today Dumble has 146 features and 12 world firsts. The journey was intense 6 months non-stop, every day, solving problems nobody had solved before. Like making an AI that actually SEES what it creates (real-time screenshots + visual self-correction), or building permanent memory that never forgets. I'm here to answer anything: - How I built it alone
- The technical architecture (Tauri, Claude API)
- How I compete with Cursor ($60B valuation, 300 engineers)
- The hardest problems I had to solve
- What's next for Dumble
- What it's like being a solo founder in France Ask me anything!

What are you planting this year?

I'm going to give these Greek melons a chance again, they produced some fruit but very sensitive to soil bacteria. What will you plant again or for the first time?
