00:00:00.439 --> 00:00:04.380
So what is Cursor? Chances are you already

00:00:04.460 --> 00:00:08.179
know it, but in the end, Cursor is an IDE,
an

00:00:08.279 --> 00:00:12.220
integrated development environment,
with a deep integration

00:00:12.279 --> 00:00:15.599
of AI. It comes with AI-powered code

00:00:15.680 --> 00:00:19.520
completion and code suggestions as you
write

00:00:19.579 --> 00:00:22.739
your code. It comes with code generation

00:00:23.119 --> 00:00:27.100
capabilities. Most importantly,
it comes with a built-in

00:00:27.299 --> 00:00:31.040
AI chat and AI agents, which means

00:00:31.219 --> 00:00:34.879
you can hand entire tasks or prompts

00:00:35.040 --> 00:00:38.740
off to the AI to complete it
and you can generate code

00:00:38.879 --> 00:00:42.539
across multiple files, for example,
to implement new

00:00:42.620 --> 00:00:45.619
features into your programs with help of
AI.

00:00:46.520 --> 00:00:50.260
Cursor is a fork, a copy of Visual Studio

00:00:50.360 --> 00:00:53.799
Code,
and therefore it shares the same UI in

00:00:53.880 --> 00:00:57.040
general, the same features.
You can use your existing

00:00:57.139 --> 00:01:00.959
extensions that you might be used to from
Visual Studio Code

00:01:01.020 --> 00:01:04.680
with Cursor,
but it then comes with multiple

00:01:04.900 --> 00:01:08.899
AI assistance and tools
and certain other new features

00:01:09.180 --> 00:01:13.019
deeply integrated into it,
which altogether make it a

00:01:13.080 --> 00:01:16.739
very popular choice for many developers
when it comes to

00:01:16.799 --> 00:01:19.900
writing code and working on code together
with

00:01:20.040 --> 00:01:22.479
AI.
