What you'll learn
Cursor is an AI editor and coding agent that combines completion, inline editing, codebase search, multi-file changes, and tool execution, but beginners need a clear progression from predicting and editing to delegating, planning, configuring, and reviewing. In this course, Getting Started with Cursor AI, you'll gain the ability to use Cursor's everyday editing and agent workflows safely. First, you'll explore Cursor Tab predictions and Cmd+K inline edits while establishing Cursor as your working IDE. Next, you'll discover how to delegate a specific codebase change, audit the resulting code with Agent Review, and seek an independent critique. Finally, you'll learn how to approve an approach with Plan mode, execute it across files, and set repository instructions in AGENTS.md and tool-call permissions with Run Mode. When you're finished with this course, you'll have the skills and knowledge of Cursor needed to complete coding tasks at different scales while staying in control of the results.
