Just a thought on Cursor and the fact that Anthropic rate limiting basically doesn't let me do anything right now. I've been developing with Cursor and Claude-3.5-Sonnet (recently 3.7-thinking) for last few months now. I've gotten to a point where I realized 1 hour of no-Cursor coding can be done in 10 minutes or less using Cursor agent. It's absolutely amazing, let me just say that.
But because of the issues with Anthropic's endpoint, I was forced to try out gpt-4o, and other models. But nothing beats Claude-3.5(7)-Sonnet. The flow of work and bug-free features are unbeatable. I also started exploring something else -> Void IDE. It's a Y Combinator backed open-source tool just like Cursor. I also learned that Qwen-2.5-coder would be a good open source model to code, on par with Anthropic's model when it comes to coding. Combining these two things, I won't need Cursor anymore. However, I didn't go that route because Void still has some catching up to do, but they'll get there.
My point of this post is, if Cursor doesn't prioritize powerful coding flow for users paying $40+/month to use their platform, eventually all will churn to open-source tools like Void and Qwen-2.5. Needless to mention, in the coming weeks and months we'll reach a 'mini-singularity' point for coding, where I can combine all these open source tools to just create.
I've been using Cursor to experiment building Web3 apps a bit quicker. Right now I'm exploring the Sui Blockchain and building little apps with it.I've been able to successfully been able to create sites that can connect and recognize wallets but when I start wanting to add more functionality I've seen Cursor struggle and really break things.This is before I've even written any smart contracts, I'm just experimenting with wallet connections, reading, and how we can use data to create different user experiences. Curious if anyone has any tips, experience, or apps they're willing to share!
