What I like most about Cursor is that it feels like an IDE first and an AI tool second, which means I'm the guy in the chair. The AI is deeply integrated into the development workflow instead of feeling like a separate chatbot. Features like editing across multiple files, understanding the codebase context and making targeted changes save a lot time compared to constantly copying code back and forth.
I also appreciate that cursor doesn't try to replace the developer. It speeds up repetitive work, helps me navigate unfamiliar code, and lets me stay focused on solving the actual problem. It strikes a good balance between automation and keeping me in control, which makes it something i can use throughhout the day rather than occasionally Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes the AI makes broad changes when i want a small, targeted edit. It can also lose context in very large or complex codebases.
Occasionally, the suggested code looks correct but misses subtle project specific details. I would also like more transparency into why it chooses edits or approaches Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
