I've recently tried it on 1:1 calls with ML/backend engineers and on a workshop at our local hacker space for 20 people and I've got so much positive feedback that I've decided to share it here. If you follow this tutorial closely, it'll help trying to generate both a plain HTML app and a React app with pretty solid results for a little amount of time.

My life has changed 2 months ago since I've discovered the Cursor IDE. I love this product and I'm trying to share that as much as I can. I stopped writing React on my own and I only code using English/Russian now, and much faster.

Disclosure: my codebase is 10k LOC in modern React+TS, your 100k Rust mileage may vary.

The 'tips' section is good.

I'm not sure why it's better to use this boilerplate rather than having cursor create it from scratch?
