Hey guys! Super sorry but there have been a lot of spammers that have recently joined the community. I tried setting the group to auto-accept to make it easier for new members to join the group. Unfortunately, some spammers were abusing this so I turned off the auto-join. If you see anything weird, please report it and I'll kick them from the group! I don't know my people can't just let us be nerds and leave us alone! 😂

Hey coding fam, I hope everyone is doing well! I wanted to see if anyone has used Cursor. There is a lot of buzz about it, some even saying it is the VS Code killer (seems doubtful). But wanted to see if anyone has thoughts on it. With all of the cool things you can do with artifacts and coding, I thought this might be a good additional tool. You can prompt Claude 3.5 Sonnet within Cursor. I thought that was pretty cool. Here is a good video overview. Cheers!

A great YouTube video on why the vlogger Dave Ebbelaar moved from VS Code to the new Cursor IDE.

Unfortunately, Sonnet 3.5 has some access restrictions for members in the EU. There are ways to overcome these obstacles, but do you know any other tools to help code faster? I came across tools like cursor or open source tools like Zen AI, but they produced the best results again with Sonnet. By the way using these tools everyone can be a programmer. Check the video. Do you have any other suggestions for members of the EU?

I Know, I Know. its a wide ranging subject. I have an application that will have registrations, login , passwords, and account details held in it. I don't want to go down the road of installing MySQL or PostgreSQL What are your recommendations, and why? I was thinking MongoDB but that seems an older choice. Firebase I have heard a lot about but never used it. Opinions?
