Unlocking the Power of AI: My Journey with Cursor
This weekend, I explored the impressive capabilities of Cursor by hosting my own URL shortener using YOURLS on a fresh Azure VM. Here’s what I discovered:
-
Seamless Operations: Cursor not only wrote the commands but also:
- Connected via SSH
- Installed dependencies
- Configured Apache virtual hosts
- Set up MySQL and handled SSL certificates
-
Customization Made Easy: When I requested a custom YOURLS plugin, it delivered on the first try!
-
Efficient Results: What used to take over an hour of manual work was completed by Cursor in just 15 minutes.
