Hey, thanks for the shoutout and for sharing your honest thoughts! We’d love to chat about what you’re looking for and see how we can improve the general AI experience. Let’s connect!
Please you guys at Jetbrains, integrate a chatgpt feature within Intellij in the likes of cursor IDE (especially integrate that cmd+k feature with gpt or claude). This is really frustrating for devs to have only terrible third party plugins available, or your ai model which is quite frankly not on par with the competition. I'm actually thinking about leaving behind Jetbrains for VSCode because you guys are lagging behind.
@paulywalnutz5855 I don't use the generate feature much, it is the auto-complete that is the real deal. Saves so much time. It can auto-complete and suggest code on multiple lines accurately. Also the in-built GPT saves so much time because I don't have to copy-paste stuff to and from the chatgpt website every time. As to the generation, I use it when I don't know how to write a logic at all and this makes me learn it. For example I did not know how to make a selection logic for filtering e-commerce products, I asked it to generate it, and it did. And I learned the logic! And it did it accurately and efficiently because it has access to my whole project.
@@paulywalnutz5855 I asked ChatGPT for example to tell me all "chapters" (in ascending order so to say) that I'd have to go through in order to learn C++ for example, and for each chapter (and sub-chapter) it should generate an exercise. And for none of those exercises should it give me the immediate solution unless I specifically ask for it. When I don't know something, I ask it to guide me in such a way that I can get to the solution myself. If I fail to get to the solution, I let the AI generate the solution for me. And that way I learn the logic behind the solution AND the proper syntax.
Point 1. You can rename a variable, class, function including all it's references in VSCode too just hit F2 Point 2. You can use Git history extension in vs code, combined with the built in source control is way better than GitLens in my opinion (free) Point 3. Cursor forked a whole project without giving credit for it
I noticed you were using gpt 4o in the video. Have you tried Claude 3.5 Sonnet? Been coding 10x as better for me, and way better experience. Truly a game-gahnger. Glad to see you making a video on Cursor! Been using it for months now, and it still blows my mind to this day. Keep up the great work!
Nice succinct overview of Cursor. Did you use the default model, aka ChatGPT? I’ve heard Claude 3.5 is even better. Also - if you really dislike VS Code give Zed a try.
Does it get your entire project's code as context? Would it be able to access code from another folder to write other functions or unit tests? That would be really useful, you should absolutely test your AI generated code as you go.
Metrix: cursor just using vscode as their Code editor with a ai copilot. Just like browser companies silver wrapped with chromium and a pre-installed ad blocker.
GH Copilot and AI Assistant have had the content aware feature for some time now, but GH Copilot often uses more 3.5 GPT and JetBrains AI also uses a combination of 3.5 and 4 plus their own LLM. In cursor you can use whatever type of model you need from ChatGPT and even some of Gemini, Claude, Llama, etc. Don't need to worry about some extensions and their usability and stability. I think VS Code is going to be improved in time, but not in this line.
Cursor, Ecliplse thea like once you taste electron you can never leave it and as cant leave so just for vs code and add some new feature most of which can be added just by building an extension and if you want build using native or better crossplatform framework
I bet you this has a lot of start ups scrambling lol. Well... if it's boot strapped implementing a.i more into vs code probably wouldn't be too challenging
Jetbrains is a funny company, they have great ideas. Even their learning product, hyperskill, is honestly a really good idea, BUT IT'S SO BLOATED AND SLOW, rather hit myself in the family jewels than use it. Now, their editors aren't so slow, but like you pointed out, definitely bloated.
@@YourAverageTechBrowow, thanks for share. I also struggle to move from excellent webstorm into cursor vs code ide. I hope as u say webstorm will add this functionally also some day
Hey! Do you know where i can make like demo videos of my saas to put it on landing page? idk how to explain but there is also like a moving cursor, zoom etc (startups usually put it as their demo on landing page)
I wasn’t able to finish watching the video. It feels like a paid advertisement. Did they offer you a paid tier for this video? Copilot is x2 cheaper than Cursor. About the features: 1. You can bind a shortcut to open Copilot chat to get a similar experience. 2. How often do you change the function names? Especially extending a simple function with extra logic. Using imaginary problem to demonstrate a solution is a bad idea. Also, using bad coding practices.
Hi Bro! I love what you're doing and new subscriber here! By the way, I help content creators to increase their online presence through video editing and enhancing their post and reels for better engagement and audience retention, which is why I'm tuning into your vlog and learning a lot. Just sending this message because I love your work!
oh wow an AI that will read my entire codebase and generate more unmaintainable react, sorry, serverless nextjs on the edge, best in class, used by - bullshit that nobody is gonna understand and probably sell that same codebase to
