What is Cursor?

Cursor is an AI-first code editor designed to make software development faster, more accessible, and collaborative. Built as a direct fork of VS Code, Cursor fully integrates leading frontier models (like GPT-4o and Claude 3.5 Sonnet) directly into the coding environment, allowing developers to generate, edit, and refactor complex multi-file projects through conversation.
