I really wish there was something as good as Cursor for Jetbrains.
They did announce Junie. Close enough to cursor i feel. Link: https://www.jetbrains.com/junie/
But, what is stopping you from moving from Jetbrains to Cursor or the likes? AFAIK, most of the functionality can be achieved via plugins / extensions on Cursor.
Just Curious.
Because vs code is just far inferior IDE in comparison to jetbrains.
They (ms) went a long way in customization, bells and whistles, but haven’t yet nailed the basics.
Most of really experienced developers i know hate it.
I use Cursor, switch to Jetbrains to validate the code.
I don't like the VScode ui. It feels more like a 1 solution-fits-all. Jetbrains has much deeper understanding of the (debug) tools I use.
