Qu'est-ce que Cursor ?

Cursor is an AI code editor built on the VS Code codebase. It combines a familiar editing experience with AI features that can autocomplete code, answer questions about a project, and carry out multi-file changes through an agent that works inside the editor. It is aimed at professional developers and teams who want AI assistance built into their daily editor rather than added as a separate tool. Because it shares its foundation with VS Code, most extensions, themes and keybindings carry over. Its main difference is how deeply the AI is tied to the whole codebase, including project indexing, configurable rules and a choice of models from several providers.
