This guide takes you from a fresh install all the way to advanced Agent Mode workflows that can dramatically accelerate your development speed.</p> <h2 id="what-is-cursor-and-why-should-you-care">What Is Cursor and Why Should You Care?<a href="#what-is-cursor-and-why-should-you-care" class="anchor" aria-hidden="true"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round"> <path d="M15 7h3a5 5 0 0 1 5 5 5 5 0 0 1-5 5h-3m-6 0H6a5 5 0 0 1-5-5 5 5 0 0 1 5-5h3"></path> <line x1="8" y1="12" x2="16" y2="12"></line> </svg></a></h2> <p>Cursor is a fork of Visual Studio Code that adds deep AI integration at every level of the development experience.
