Hi guys, I know heavy users want to see some optimizations, but for me I managed to do the MVP of my dream project with cursor in just five days!!
You don’t understand, I got so much closer to my dream in five days than I could ever hope for. I thought MVP would probably take 6 months and cost me a fortune for a capable programmer. Now I managed it myself in five days and 15$ of credits.
Sure I get some of the negative-productive feedback here in the forum and maybe I’ll get to a point where I’m so used to just being able to implement a database into a complex backend and an absolutely functional front end (even though I barely ever got beyond a ‘hello world’-level in python myself) that start to see the negatives first, -but I’ll be forever thankful for putting me in a position where a dream of mine could actually become a reality.
Back in early ChatGPT days, I tried copypasting back and forth and it was hell and bad and hell. Cursor on the other hand… I watched youtube for the most part of realizing my dream. How insane is that?
You can do it in one day if you use Cursor a bit differently. It’s all about how you structure the prompts, reuse context, and leverage snippets efficiently. Once you dial that in, MVPs feel like cheat codes.

Are there any good resources you can point to or do you have any tips for me? Thank you for the feedback!
but happy to see first how others do it.
