.cursorrulesfiles for Cursor IDE — supercharge your AI coding assistant with framework-specific rules.
Cursor is an AI-powered code editor. .cursorrules files tell Cursor's AI about your project's conventions, tech stack, and coding patterns — making AI-generated code match your style perfectly.
Drop a .cursorrules file in your project root, and Cursor automatically uses it to generate better, more consistent code.
