Why we picked it The official starting point for the tool itself, written to get you from install to your first useful edit: sign in, ask Cursor to explain a codebase, make a small change, review the diff. Because it is built on VS Code and uses plain-English chat and inline edits, a non-developer can follow along and actually accept or reject each change. Start here before any third-party tutorial so you are working from the source of truth.
Cursor Quickstart
From Cursor Docs by Cursor
- Ask Cursor to explain existing code before you change anything
- Review every diff per file and accept or reject deliberately
- Composer handles multi-file edits, but you approve what lands
