AI Programming Tool Cursor v0.44.9 Easy to code even for newbies (unlimited refills)

Cursor is an intelligent programming tool based on AI technology designed to help developers improve their programming efficiency and experience. It combines advanced Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology on top of traditional code editors to automate code generation and optimization, making programming easier and more efficient.

Recently tested in person, Cursor works quite well when dealing with small projects and can even complete a complete small project in less than five minutes! It is able to utilize a powerful language model (LLM) to help developers efficiently complete a variety of coding tasks.

Cursor is more than just a text editor, it is an intelligent assistant that understands and generates code, greatly enhancing the developer's programming experience.

Function Highlights

• Intelligent Code Completion: Provide auto-completion suggestions for code snippets, functions, variables, etc. based on context.
• code generation: The developer simply describes the requirements in natural language and Cursor generates the appropriate code.
• Real-time error detection: Detect syntax and logic problems and provide suggestions for fixing them.
• Document Generation: Automatically generate code documentation to help developers better understand and maintain the code.
• Multi-language support: It supports programming languages such as Python, JavaScript, Java, C++, etc. and provides customized functions for different languages.
• Personalized Settings: Support AI model customization and interface theme modification to adapt to different user needs.

For developers who are used to using VS Code, Cursor also supports VS Code configuration and plug-in import, making the experience very convenient.

Some shortcuts

1. code completion
   Pressing the Tab key initiates code completion, helping developers to quickly complete their code.The Tab key can:
   • Provide code suggestions and auto-populate
   • Modify and generate multiple lines of code
   • Give relevant advice based on historical codes
   • Predicts next cursor position and auto-completion
2. Chat function
   Talk to the AI in a specified area to quickly generate code. Simply press the shortcut key Ctrl+L(Mac users are Command+L), open the dialog box and enter the requirements, and Cursor can automatically add the code to the file.
3. editing function
   press a button Ctrl+K(Mac for Command+K) can make changes to code snippets to quickly adjust or generate new code.
4. Composer Features
   utilization Ctrl+i(Mac for Command+i) Call up the Composer function, enter the requirements, and quickly develop a complete project, especially suitable for white people.

How to develop a small project quickly?

1. Identify needs
   Before using the Composer function, define your requirements, type them in the input box, press enter and wait for the AI to generate the code.
2. Debugging and Optimization
   After the initial completion of the project, debugging and fixing errors. In my test, for example, after loading the generated browser extension plugin into the browser, debugging console error messages, continuing optimization, and finally completing the usable program.
3. Optimize UI and functionality
   After completing the basic functionality, you can continue to optimize the interface and add additional features to finalize the project.

After repeated optimization and testing, even the most basic AI tools are capable of generating efficient and useful code, making them a powerful assistant to developers!

For those who do not know the code of friends, Cursor is really an indispensable programming tool, fast to start, convenient and efficient, to help you easily complete the project development.

I'm sure you'll fall in love with this amazing programming tool once you experience it!
