Cursor has obviously figured out marketing better.

I switched to Windsurf 2-3 months ago, feels a lot better for me.



I was looking at Windsurf and Cursor as well, what are the differences?


It's hard to to rate the quality, I just feel like it does a better job of knowing the codebase and what I am working on via whatever mechanisms they have implemented.

I also find the DX better, I only really use the right click to mark code to talk about, and then the chat. The accept/reject changes UI works better imo.

In short, I barely have to do anything to use the AI features, just feels right.

Just try both, I didn't feel like Cursor suited my style much, Windsurf had me hooked instantly.


Agreed. Windsurf is a lot better


What do you find better about it?
