Should I Switch from VSCode to Cursor for Coding?
Asked by

I'm trying to decide whether I should switch from VSCode to Cursor for my coding projects. VSCode already has built-in AI agents, so I'm not quite sure what the advantages of using Cursor might be. Can anyone share their thoughts?

I think thereโs a lot to love about VSCode and its extensions, especially for dedicated workflows. Cursor is cool, but if youโre already in a groove with VSCode, you may not gain anything significant by making the switch.

One thing you might consider is how easy it is to get started with Cursor. It's designed to work well right out of the box, so if you want a no-fuss experience, Cursor could be worth a try. However, if you prefer customizing settings or bringing your own tools, sticking with VSCode might be better for you.

I've played around with both and found that Cursor is pretty user-friendly. It has some built-in prompts that just make it function smoothly without much setup. But it's worth noting that if you're someone who likes having full control over settings and configurations, VSCode might suit your style better. In the end, if you're satisfied with VSCode, there might not be a strong reason to switch.
