Cursor, a fork of Visible Studio Code, is constructed to make you “terribly productive,” and claims to be “one of the simplest ways to code with AI.” Cursor has a number of code completion and chat fashions of its personal built-in, and may also use Claude Opus and the premium fashions GPT-4, GPT-4o, and Claude 3.5 Sonnet. In the middle of this overview, extra fashions had been launched, equivalent to o1-mini. Precisely what fashions you may name, how typically, and at what precedence, rely in your Cursor and GitHub Copilot subscription plans and what API keys you provide. Cursor’s personal code completion does greater than GitHub Copilot. It might probably edit the code round your cursor and take away textual content, not simply insert textual content at your cursor place. Cursor is about the identical measurement as VS Code.
