Contral - The IDE that teaches you while you build. With Build Mode, you apply everything independently with context aware assistance that supports your thinking. Build with AI agents and learn along the way as you build. With Learn Mode, learn specific languages. You get step by step guidance, real time explanations, and direction as you work on actual tasks. 200+ developers are already on the waitlist. This is the first step towards changing how developers learn.

Curious to hear from everyone here: When you were learning to code, what was actually harder for you understanding concepts or building something on your own from scratch? A lot of people can follow tutorials and understand what’s happening, but the moment they try to build independently, things start breaking down. That gap between learning and building seems to be where most people get stuck. What was your experience like? Where did things start getting difficult for you?

Hey Product Hunt 👋

I'm Devansh, 18 year old engineering student from India. Me and my co-founder Samagra built Contral over the last 6 months with zero funding.

The problem we kept hitting: we were vibecoding entire projects and couldn't explain any of it in interviews. The AI made every decision and never explained a single one.

So we built the fix directly into the IDE.

Contral teaches you every line while AI codes your project. Not after. Not in docs. Right as it happens.

Key features:

→ AI writes the code. You learn while it does.

→ Teaches every function and architectural decision in real time

→ Codebase Analyzer: tested on a 10M+ line repo, mapped full architecture and generated quizzes from actual production code
→ Learn Mode: structured curriculum starting with Java
