This really puzzles me. I tried Cursor and was completely underwhelmed. The answers it gave (about a 1.5M loc messy Spring codebase) were surface-level and unhelpful to anyone but a Java novice. I get vastly better work out of my intern.
To add insult to injury, the IntelliJ plugin threw spurious errors. I ended up uninstalling it and marking my calendar to try again in 6 months.
Yet some people say Cursor is great. Is it something about my project? I can't imagine how it deals with a codebase that is many millions of tokens. Or is it something about me? I'm asking hard questions because I don't need to ask the easy ones.
What are people who think Cursor is great doing differently?
