Codecrafters Turns Coding Into a Game — Just Like Duolingo Did for Languages
Codecrafters Turns Coding Into a Game: In today’s fast-paced world, learning to code can feel overwhelming and lonely. That’s exactly the problem Paul Kuruvilla and Sarup Banskota wanted to solve when they launched Codecrafters in 2022.

Unlike traditional coding platforms that rely heavily on videos or live classes, Code Makers takes a different approach. The idea is simple but powerful: learn by doing. Instead of passively watching tutorials, developers tackle real, challenging projects that help them deeply understand programming languages and build practical skills from day one.
Paul, who is the CTO of Codecrafters, explains, “Learning to code is often inefficient and frustrating. It takes a lot of practice to get good, and staying motivated can be tough, especially when you’re trying to build projects without much guidance.”
Right now, many developers have to cobble together their own learning paths, set their own goals, and figure out how to practice effectively. Dev crafters aims to change that by providing a clear roadmap and tools to track progress, making it easier for developers to grow and stay motivated.
Backed by Y Combinator and having raised $1.8 million in seed funding from industry leaders like Instagram co-founder Mike Krieger, Codecrafters is positioned to redefine how aspiring coders learn. It’s designed to help developers not just learn to code, but truly master it — turning practice into expertise.
