What if your IDE didn't just autocomplete code-but actively worked with you as a junior engineer, reviewer, tester, and refactoring partner?
AI Coding with Cursor 2.0 is a hands-on, no-fluff guide for developers who want to move beyond basic AI suggestions and unlock real, repeatable productivity gains using Cursor's latest agent-driven features.
This book shows you how to turn Cursor 2.0 into a powerful coding collaborator-one that understands your codebase, executes multi-step plans, automates routine tasks, and helps you ship high-quality software faster without sacrificing control or clarity.
Whether you're building side projects, scaling production systems, or maintaining legacy code, you'll learn how to design workflows where AI works for you-not against you.
Inside, you'll learn how to: Design effective AI-first coding workflows that reduce rework and context switching
Write clear, reliable prompts that produce usable code-not vague suggestions
Use agent-based execution to plan, implement, test, and refactor features safely
Automate repetitive development tasks like boilerplate generation, testing, and documentation
Debug and refactor large codebases with confidence using structured AI assistance
Combine human judgment with AI speed to maintain code quality and consistency
Integrate Cursor into real-world Git, review, and deployment workflows
What makes this book differentThis is not a theoretical overview or a collection of generic prompts. Every concept is grounded in practical, real-world workflows you can apply immediately. You'll see how experienced developers think when working with AI-how they guide it, constrain it, review its output, and turn it into a dependable part of their daily development process.
No hype. No "magic button" promises. Just clear strategies for building software faster and smarter with AI.
Who this book is forSoftware developers who want to boost productivity without losing control
