I been having fun creating mini apps with both and comparing the results with one shot prompts. Now that I am getting used to having composer/claudedev write the code for me rather than me manually copy and paste I feel like there no going back…
Though once my simple v1 is working I do start to iterate slowly with features with cursor
I use the one shot prompt to get me something up and running
keep us posted how it works with more elaborate projects, many been saying it gets iffy after a while and return back to chat after the initial composer use
my thought is practicing one shot prompts and understanding how to write them to get me to the end… And if I make it to the end switch to cursor and start adding features.
Like everything else in technology it will only get better… I don’t see ever going back to the old way of coding or even pasting in code myself.
I totally agree. Hopefully, oneday when we say “I am coding”, we already know that the AI is there, and no need to mention “I am coding with an AI/Cursor”.
That is, making the AI/Cursor as the practical standard with no need to mention. That is why I am a little discouraged by some limitation techniqically that users no need to care originally.
