I learned about this editor today. I've been using github copilot for awhile now, and while it's nice to type less, the UX for actual copilot-ing is half-baked and more trouble than it's worth. It's good enough that it has me fantasizing about avoiding even more boilerplate though.
Has anyone used Cursor yet? @bitcoinplebdev?

I started using it a while back when tinkering with side projects. Nearly got close to tempting you then, but butchered the domain name đŸ˜‚

The thing that’s great about Cursor is the ability to have a conversation in the sidebar separately about a concept, approaches or potential bug fixes, whilst at the same time attaching or linking files & documentation to reference in its answer, without it directly touching your source code unless you want it to.
Then at the same time you have that inline code editor to do the very same thing and write the code directly on your files.
The only disappointment has been it’s exclusive reliance on OpenAI, but you’ve got to imagine that’s about to change.

lol I knew I saw this somewhere before!
I was excited to see they have Claude in the Pro version after @bitcoinplebdev raved about it on SNL last week.
It sounds a lot like Github's Copilot, which I don't think does this right yet, but I'll give it a shot and report back if it lives up the hype I've read.

There is also https://continue.dev/
This one supports many llms, but was pretty buggy a couple months ago. Seemed promising though.

haven't used it yet but I am interested. I heard from a few of my friends that work at other companies that it is better than copilot
