I experimented making apps in Cursor-AI so you don't have to
- Vibe coding, where a cursor instance is tasked to create basic programs, aims to speed up software development and engage no-coders in app creation.
- The author experimented by building 3 apps, including a landing page with a snake game and high-scores, a puzzle game in Rust, and an encryption program in assembler.
- The landing page app was easy to create with instant results, leveraging known tools like vue.js and python.
- The Rust puzzle game project encountered serious bugs, requiring multiple iterations and eventually was abandoned due to complexity.
- The assembler encryption program faced challenges, with the author relying on the cursor agent for debugging and ultimately achieving XOR file encryption.
- Vibe coding aided in learning new technologies but lacked security considerations and required debugging practices.
- Agents assisting in code understanding could be beneficial, especially for revisiting unfamiliar codebases or making quick changes.
- The author suggests adding debugging statements to aid issue resolution and highlights the importance of security when moving generated apps into production.
- The trend of vibe coding is recommended as a must-try for accelerating adaptation to new technologies and staying relevant in the field.
- Give it a try and stay updated.
- Remember to address security concerns and consider the implications of using generated code in production environments.
