Deep dive into cursor AI and my thoughts on if it could replace developers.


Hello Reader,

Let's deep dive into Cursor AI, a tool that might replace developers.

I just uploaded a YouTube video in which I’ll walk you through four different methods to build applications quickly using Cursor AI:

  1. Simple prompt
  2. Detailed prompt
  3. Screenshots or Wireframes
  4. URL as an example (inspiration)

Join me as I explore Cursor AI’s capabilities and see how it can revolutionize your development process. It is a fantastic tool for rapid prototyping and exploring new ideas.

Your friend,
Vinod

Now, I run on a new trio that’s clicking perfectly: OmniFocus for tasks Notion for notes + reflections ChatGPT as my productivity coach The real unlock? A quick check-in with myself every 3–4 hours. Just enough to reset my focus without guilt and get back on track. Debugging hell, AI-style On my coding, I...

Hey Reader, Something big happened yesterday, and I wanted to share it with you. I pitched Discourage.me at Quick Pitch Night with Orlando Innovation League and StarterStudio.
