Does this stop you from using Cursor

Yes - Cursor is unusable

Hi @SSB the C/C++ extension you will need is the one from us Anysphere as the one from MS will not work in VSCode based editors. (Not our limitation)

I can see several Arduino related extensions but not one named “Arduino Maker Workshop”. For this one you may need to contact the maker of the extension and ask them to submit it to OpenVSX and to the forum here for inclusion in Cursor marketplace.
