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.

landmine - Lockfile in. Known bugs out. Before your agent edits.

Your agent never checks GitHub for bugs in your exact versions. landmine does: it reads your lockfile, finds open issues filed against those versions, and gives the agent the bug and the workaround via AGENTS.md, a pre-edit hook or MCP. Free and open source.

Looking for 5 agency owners who want us to build their outbound system for free

Most small agencies don t have a bad offer.

They have an inconsistent pipeline.

One week they manually search for prospects.
The next week they are busy delivering client work.
Outbound stops, follow-ups get forgotten, and revenue becomes unpredictable.

We built Sumora to solve this.

We exited Contral. Here’s what we built next.

A few months ago, we exited Contral.

Contral was the first real startup Samagra and I built together. We were 18, figuring everything out as we went, and somehow reached 1500+ users and became #1 Product of the Week twice.

More importantly, Contral taught us how to ship quickly, listen to users, launch publicly, and keep building when nothing is certain.

While building it, one problem kept hurting us: consistently finding and reaching the right customers.
