Cursor Project Rules
About
Cursor Project Rules is a collection of local documentation that instructs the Cursor AI on how to work efficiently with modern frameworks and libraries. Unlike web-scraped documentation that might be outdated or incomplete, these rules provide Cursor’s AI with accurate, comprehensive, and immediately accessible information.
Why Local Documentation?
- Performance: No need to wait for web scraping or API calls
- Accuracy: Carefully curated information without HTML parsing errors
- Completeness: Full documentation coverage without token limitations
- Reliability: Works even without internet connection
