Cursor
A development tool that brings AI coding assistance into an editor workflow.
Overview
Cursor is an AI coding tool for software development. Its official site presents it as both a coding-agent and editor environment for building software.
Why it is here
Keeping reading, editing, and questions in one work surface helps when you need to understand local code before changing it. Review each diff and run tests regardless.
Good fit for
Frontend, backend, and full-stack developers who spend much of their day in an editor.
Try it when
- Asking about the callers and consumers of a code section
- Working through a small refactor
- Checking whether a change still needs test coverage
