Heyyy. Curious if you have used Claude 3.5 for coding tasks and what’s the comparison like with just using cursor vs Claude?
(I have been using Claude a lot recently and I really like it)
I'm writing applications with Claude via cursor composer. I don't think I can go back, honestly.
Current flow is to have v0 focus on making nice interfaces and components, with cursor doing the heavy lifting of actually writing the application full stack, and occasionally pasting in some ui from v0. While I'm waiting for v0 I'm prompting cursor composer, and vice versa.
And when I say I'm writing applications with cursor composer, I mean I haven't written code in days.
That’s PRETTY GOOD. I definitely need to try cursor then
They've integrated really well. You can paste a url for some docs and it will index them, then you can @ mention the docs in any prompt to cursor composer
You can also reference github repos
NO WAYYY. That’s actually crazzyyy - okay you have convinced me. I am trying it TODAY
thanks so much
yeah it's a gamechanger. To be clear, I don't like this lol. But at this point I'm convinced devs that don't get onboard will just end up behind the curve. Learning to like it
I am spoiled now 😂
It's pretty wild
Whole new learning curve though. I'm finding there are times when it seems unbelievably stupid, like it keeps banging it's head against a wall and can't move forward. But then I later realize there was something I was missing that it couldn't let go of. I really wish AI wasn't quite so deferential, and would stand it's ground more. Like "no stupid look, you've got the schema all wrong"
I feel you. That’s a good point. Haven’t faced that kind of a scenario yet as I have mostly used it for refactoring yet or splitting a huge file into components. I am yet to try on a feature from scratch which I do have in mind. That being said, I have really been enjoying the indexing docs feature
