Thanks for giving us the opportunity to share! Also, really cool how you got the game together so quickly. I played the game a couple of times and could only get a highscore of 311 😅

Appreciate you and Jordan for sharing the insights! It was fun to build the game and also to binge play it later :)

I think we need to ask Tarek Nada, who got 2001, how he did it :) he sent the screenshot in the comment of the post: https://bit.ly/3XGynjk

Thanks so much for the great collaboration, Gregor! To readers, if you haven't tried Cursor yet, try it. It's a huge win over VSCode and this post covers the main ways to get value out of it. Awesome post, Gregor 🙏

Appreciate it Jordan, it was awesome collabing once again! Indeed, you can be so much more productive + it’s interesting to see how AI aproaches to solving different problems.

Great article!

I’ve coded solely with Cursor for the last 2 months. I’ve build manager.dev purely with it, with around 1500+ prompts :)

It’s fully useable, with auth (supabase), DB, and some cool graphs :)

Here are my 2 main lessons:

- I prefer many small changes, with tons of commits. Better to work a bit slower than move in the wrong direction.

- a lot of rollbacks. Once it goes into a bit wrong direction, I go back to the last commit, and try again with better instructions. Works much better than correcting existing code.

Thanks for sharing Anton! Right, if you use Cursor the right way + you understand exactly what’s happening, it can really improve the overall productivity a lot.

Interesting, I was also considering the gearbox. These days I came across Trae which I am still testing(described as the free cursor). If you would like to try it and share your opinion it would be interesting

Thanks for sharing! Haven’t tried Trae yet, but might be interesting to compare it to Cursor
