Cursor Composer Agent Vs. Windsurf Cascade Agent - Head to Head - Battle of the Agentics!

[@rlimb]

Thanks for all the recent videos. Very exciting times. I really like your approach to start Claude with product requirements. Would you mind sharing (Github) your requirements files?

[@AIonRails-v9s]

Yw, exciting indeed. Thanks for the kudos. I just pushed the cursor version of this project to github, the requirements are here: github.com/sandnap/vesta/blob/main/requirements/application_gen_prompt.md.

Content is 10/10. Constructive feedback to make your media quality even better: get a good microphone.

[@AIonRails-v9s]

Thanks! Yep, the audio has been horrible but I have a new microphone now so it should be a lot better.

What do you think about the impact this is going to have on Jobs? Does it look like these agents will eventually replace developers?

[@AIonRails-v9s]

In my opinion, successful developers will need to adapt and embrace new skills. There will be significant opportunities for those who can communicate effectively with business stakeholders to establish solid application requirements. Developers will also need to master the skill of translating those requirements into a format (prompts) that AI models can understand to deliver optimal results. Large Language Models (LLMs) can generate code at remarkable speeds, but the quality of that code ranges from unusable to mind-blowing. The difference lies in understanding what individual models excel at, selecting the right model for the task, and crafting prompts that maximize effectiveness. The most productive developers have always been, and will continue to be the most sought after. However, the definition of productivity is evolving, whether we choose to adapt to it or not.

There will also be a lot of opportunity for those who learn how to help organizations leverage AI to optimize their workflows. Writing agents, training models, and leveraging RAG to make data more accessible.

How are you installing Flowbite properly so that the javascript works and you have the documentation for the AI?

[@AIonRails-v9s]

Hi! I am using import maps for most of my projects though I have also used esbuild successfully. I am using the turbo build of flowbite (flowbite.turbo.min.js) which has the turbo hooks that handle the data-attribute event binding after turbo page updates. Otherwise, the binding only occurs on the initial page load and is lost when the components are reloaded. This re-binding can be handled manually too with stimulus if you prefer handling it explicitly. For import maps I downloaded the JS and CSS files for the latest flowbite version and put them in the correct directories under the vendor folder. The JS file needs to be added to importmap.rb and imported in application.js and the CSS stylesheet tag added to applicaiton.html.erb. I am working on a video where I go over setting up a Rails 8 project with flowbite & tailwind and demonstrate how to use a few components. I hope to have that video done in the next day or two.
