    Cursor has become my primary development environment. The AI is deeply integrated into the coding workflow, understands project context, and significantly speeds up development. It helps me spend less time on repetitive tasks and more time building useful products.

I like it, i'm not a programmer of any skill or value though. I will say that if you have an existing VS Code install, or even some leftover plugin/extension files, directories, etc. that this does NOT play nice with them and it will almost definitely break vs code should you try and use it with cursor installed.
