Cursor

AI-native code editor. VS Code with Claude and ChatGPT built in. The power tool for serious development.

Why It's Different

Not just autocomplete—you can chat with your codebase. Ask questions about how things work, request refactors, generate entire features from descriptions.

When to Use

Complex projects that need real engineering. Building the The Marketing Show propagation engine? N8N automations? Custom publishing pipeline? This is where you'd do it.

Compared to Others

More powerful than Replit or Lovable. Steeper learning curve. You need to understand code to use it well—the AI assists, but you're still the developer.
