    I want to share with you a little personal achievement. With barely any coding knowledge (I only learned the basic syntax of Python, but it wasn't used at all in this case), I built and launched a website directory from scratch. This is how I made it: - Asked Claude to design the site and add features, generate the various coding files, and provide the general architecture - Ran and tested the site first locally on my desktop server - Imported the files to GitHub - From GitHub, deployed the project to Netlify hosting - Connected the Netlify address with my custom domain

    The entire process took me about 5 to 6 hours cumulatively and it only cost me the monthly $20 for Claude.

    The site curates a list of tips, tutorials, and how-to advice about using Cursor for coding. I tried to find the most relevant sources from Google, YouTube, X, and Reddit of various people who have used and tested Cursor and shared their experiences, tips, and recommendations.
