I think we are due for a wholesale rethinking of what an IDE looks like with AI at is core. But while I'm waiting for that, Cursor + Claude is still pretty great. It's increased my productivity a lot and is definitely a step forward from VSCode + Copilot
I've been using Cursor for the past three months, and it's completely transformed my coding workflow. It's definitely worth the hype. As others have noted, tasks that used to take me two weeks now take just two days. My only suggestion would be to enable the tool to handle context across multiple codebases—that would take it to the next level.
Cursor accelerates our coding process, offering an enhanced alternative to GitHub Copilot. It allows us to interact directly with our codebase, simplifying navigation and comprehension. Once you use it, there's no turning back.
