The “Cursor AI Rules Directory” Cursor provides the best configuration rules for Editor (an AI-driven code editing tool) Cursor, helping developers write code more efficiently when using different programming languages and frameworks.
Cursor is an AI code editor, a code editing tool based on artificial intelligence that can help developers write code more intelligently.
Smart Completion: Use AI technology to provide smart code completion to help developers write code faster.
Code Debugging: Automatically detects errors in your code and suggests fixes.
Code generation: Generate complex code segments based on simple instructions, reducing the workload of developers.
Language support: Supports multiple programming languages, suitable for different development needs.
Cursor Directory aims to provide the best profiles and a series of prompts for different programming languages and frameworks. These prompts can help the editor better understand the developer's intentions, thereby providing more accurate code completion, error repair, and other intelligent editing features.
The project covers a variety of popular programming languages and frameworks, including Python, React, TypeScript, Next.js, FastAPI, etc., and allows community members to contribute content by submitting their own rules.
These prompts can be customized according to the programming language, framework, and project requirements used by developers to optimize the performance of the editor. For example, for different programming languages (such as Python, TypeScript, React, etc.), specific prompts can be set to allow the editor to more accurately predict the next operation of the code or provide suggestions that are more in line with project requirements.
Main functions of Cursor Editor
1. Fast code writing
Auto-completion: Cursor has a powerful auto-completion function that can predict your next editing operation and even suggest changes across multiple lines of code.
Code Generation: Based on your recent changes, Cursor can predict what you want to do next.
Smart Rewrite: Even if you type imprecisely, Cursor will automatically fix your mistakes.
2. Smart Navigation
Cursor Prediction: Cursor predicts where your cursor will be next, helping you navigate your code seamlessly.
3. AI dialogue
Code Conversation: You can have a conversation with an AI that understands your codebase and ask if there are any bugs or other issues.
Codebase Query: Use shortcut keys to query the entire codebase to find code related to the problem.
Reference code: Use @ symbols to reference files and code symbols as context for your AI.
4. Images and the Internet
Use images: Add images to your conversations to provide visual context.
Web query: @Web Get the latest information from the web and use it to answer questions.
5. Quick Application
Instant Application: Code suggestions from the conversation can be applied directly to the code base.
Documentation References: You can reference documentation for popular libraries or add custom documentation.
6. Code Editing
Ctrl K shortcut key: You can use AI to edit and generate code, and you can also write complex commands in concise natural language in the terminal.
Quick Questions: For some questions in the code, you can quickly select and get the answer.
Through these features, Cursor significantly improves the efficiency of code writing, debugging, and project management. It is an advanced code editor for AI.
Cursor recently successfully completed its Series A funding , raising $60 million from investors including Andreessen Horowitz, Thrive Capital, OpenAI, and the founders of Stripe, GitHub, Ramp, Perplexity, and OpenAI.
