Using LLMs and Cursor to finish side projects
Struggling to finish side projects due to limited time? In my latest blog post, I share how I improved my productivity using AI tools like LLMs and Cursor IDE. Learn to refine specs, bootstrap code, and iterate effectively to rapidly build and deploy your projects—even with a busy schedule.
Because my time has always been limited, progress on side projects had been slow in the past, and many remained unfinished as life's events caused a loss of momentum, making them harder to resume. But overall, this puts us into a good starting point, it created the overall UX layout I expected, stored data in local storage, has the right export feature for Markdown. Composer (agent) can run commands in terminal, lint code, re-iterate etc, but going back to the principle of small iterations, I try to scope things to what I can review easily and add.
