I've been a Cursor power user for over a year. I wrote the guide to Cursor tips that thousands of developers reference every week.

And I've abandoned it all for Claude Code.

Here's how I use Claude Code and my best tips www.builder.io/blog/claude-...

I switched from Cursor's agents to Claude Code weeks ago and I'm not going back. Here's how I use it and my best practical tips

AI will not take your Software Engineer job as Excel did not take the jobs of accountants. It only allowed us to make better and more complex systems. Great point made by @steve8708.bsky.social 🙌

I made a Proof of concept @vite.dev plugin that allows transforming JSX/TSX files into real @svelte.dev components on import (+ HMR) using Mitosis by @steve8708.bsky.social.

Mitosis supports many other frameworks, so it can be improved further.
