Building @contral.ai

About

I’m Devansh Ranjan, building Contral, a learning-first coding IDE for CS undergrads, grads, and early devs who are tired of “vibe-coding” and want real skill. It keeps the VS Code/Cursor vibe, but adds structured learning + checkpoints + project-based progress so you don’t just ship code, you understand it, debug it, and grow fast. I build product-first software at the intersection of AI, full-stack engineering, and design, and I love high-pressure execution (hackathons, MVP sprints, shipping in public). I’m a Smart India Hackathon (SIH’25) finalist and a Codeforces Pupil, so I care about both fundamentals + speed. Open to collaborating with builders/designers, connecting with mentors in dev tools/edtech, and onboarding early users for Contral.
