Cursor: AI-integrated code editor
Local code editor with integrated LLM assistance.
Learn more about Cursor
Cursor is a code editor that incorporates AI models into its core editing environment. The editor runs locally on the user's machine and integrates language models to assist with code writing and editing tasks. It supports standard code editing features alongside AI-powered suggestions and code generation. The tool targets developers who want AI assistance available within their primary development environment rather than as a separate tool.
Native AI Integration
AI assistance runs directly within the editor without external plugins or context switching. Language models operate alongside standard editing features in a unified interface, keeping AI suggestions within the primary development workflow.
Code-Specific AI Model
Purpose-built for code editing rather than general AI tasks. The narrowed scope optimizes model behavior and UI design specifically for writing, reviewing, and refactoring code instead of broad-purpose assistance.
Vote-Based Feature Prioritization
Forum system lets users vote on bug reports and feature requests with public visibility. Development priorities align with community needs rather than opaque roadmaps, showing which issues maintainers are actively addressing.
// In Cursor, start typing and press Tab to accept AI suggestions
function calculateTotal(items) {
// Type: "return items.reduce" and Tab to complete
return items.reduce((sum, item) => sum + item.price, 0);
}
const cart = [{price: 10}, {price: 25}];
console.log(calculateTotal(cart));See how people are using Cursor
