Recently, there's been much talk and fuss about AI, and whether or not it can improve your development workflow. I wanted to touch base about how AI and its implementation in Cursor have been significantly improving my speed and efficiency.

In short, Cursor is a fork of VSCode with many code editing AI-assisted features built in. If you've played with Copilot in VSCode, you might know what I'm talking about. Well, think Copilot, but ten times better and with many other useful features aimed at productivity.

This story is about how I've been using it and setting it up for my open-source project SwiftUI Mastodon client, Ice Cubes.
