Oh wow, thanks for the lovely comment. I’m sitting here eating rice Crispies dying with a cold and you’ve perked me up. What kind of tutorial would you like to see next?
@@RobShocks I'm working with your codebase right now. What I'd like to see is the next steps to taking it live. As in a live viable product for the public to see. Great work. Feel better we need more of your great content!
Amazing thanks you, just a questions when you add a documentation you only add the index url or you must add whole links of the documentation? Thanks you
From my understanding Cursor indexes all the docs from just one URL so aim for the root of the docs and see how it works for you. If there docs are huge it might be better to concentrate on specific pages but I have not had that problem yet.
Honestly no. I think if that were me I'd be starting from scratch and porting over the services one by one. Depends on the project of course. What are you porting?
Hey man, I don't have that problem but I did some digging for you in the Cursor Reddit and apparently there may be an issue with a particular python package you need to install check this post out for more info www.reddit.com/r/cursor/comments/1fv3bmm/jump_to_class_or_function_definition/
The chat in the right can't actually edit multiple files, or create multiple files. At least I culdn't make it do it and thought it's not impllemented at all. Now I see there's a third way that handles precisely this use case and it is awesome!
So Composer CTRL + I is great for big changes and features because it can create new files and make changes across multiple existing files on it's own. The Chat windlow CTRL + L is useful when you are in a particular file or want to ask questions or test ideas without commitment to change. You can review what is being suggested and accept and apply each change at a time. So think of them in this order, Composer - Big sweeping changes, Chat - File level and step by step changes - CTRL - K in the file more precise changes at the file level
Yes this is annoying. I get around this happening by starting projects with a .cursorrules file in the root reminding it to use the app folder along with folder structure example then also make sure you @codebase for the scenarios where it’s getting folders wrong and this helps.
@@RobShocks interesting, mind sharing instructions for your .cursorrules file and can you clarify what it means to '@codebase for scenarios'? thx in advance
@@qubit0002 check out a site called cursor directory and you will get all the cursor rules files. @codebase typed in any prompt window tells the model to take the entire codebase context into account when responding. Also a new tip is to copy your file tree into the cursor rules or create an insturctions.md file with it pasted in there and it gives more context as well
Great tutorial! Not at all your fault but when you get to the "Composer" feature in video, cannot use with your own API keys, "Composer relies on custom models that cannot be billed to an API key. Please disable API keys and use a Pro or Business subscription." Maybe you should mention this :)
@@qiksoft Thanks for pointing that out. What models are you using. What’s the usage cost like if you are not using local? I’ve been using the paid version since the start I found it was definitely worth it and cheaper than the api for my level of usage and codebase.
I loved the calmed voice and interesting examples. Thank you very much!
Thanks, trying to distill the good stuff without the hype
Fantastic! I think I struck gold. Please keep these tutorials coming! 👏👏

Saw your comment on another YT'er's podcast on Cursor. Found ya, watched this vid. Subscribed. Now on to your other cursor vids.
@@rtwg605 glad you’re getting some use, what are you interested in building?
Amazing. Stright to the point(s). Value packed video ❤
Hey man thanks so much for that comment. Lovely thing to read on a Monday morning. I appreciate it.
May I use voice input?
Thank you , learned a lot.
Thanks Christopher, appreciate that. Want to see anything next?
nice one, precise and helpful
Thanks so much, that is the aim! What are you working on?

Nice one Rob! Thanks!
Cheers! Checked out your channel, great work, how are you finding the process?
@@RobShocks thank you Rob! 😀🙏 It’s fine. It helped me to find so many new interesting channels and learn the topics from different angles.
Have you tried porting a complete code base to a different tech stack?
Honestly no. I think if that were me I'd be starting from scratch and porting over the services one by one. Depends on the project of course. What are you porting?
Interesting... I am using vs code with continue and claudedev but might try this one out.
How did you get on, did you get time to try it yet?
Dude holy shit this is amazing
Aw man thanks so much. Glad you got use out of it. What would you like to see next
Any idea how to jump to class or function definition, I already tried ctrl + click but didn't work ?

What is the difference between composer and the chat in the side? Ty

any idea on how to fix error 'Unable to write file' - system appears to be duplicating the same path but different folder

Thanks a lot
Most welcome
clickup sucks too much settings and lotta unnecessary complexity on the UX
What do you mean by clickup?
