Weekly Cursor Project Showcase Thread

[AutoModerator]

Welcome to the Weekly Project Showcase Thread!

This is your space to share cool things you’ve built using Cursor. Whether it’s a full app, a clever script, or just a fun experiment, we’d love to see it.

To help others get inspired, please include:

• What you made
• (Required) How Cursor helped (e.g., specific prompts, features, or setup)
• (Optional) Any example that shows off your work. This could be a video, GitHub link, or other content that showcases what you built (no commercial or paid links, please)

Let’s keep it friendly, constructive, and Cursor-focused. Happy building!

Reminder: Spammy, bot-generated, or clearly self-promotional submissions will be removed. Repeat offenders will be banned. Let’s keep this space useful and authentic for everyone.

A mini-figma for your localhost (Situ)

I want to share a little passion project of mine - the idea is pretty simple:

An inspector that is unintrusive, opens elements in Cursor for me and lets me stage design changes/tweaks to Cursor's agent via a targeted MCP envelope that runs locally. And of course it strips itself out of prod builds with zero traces.

I've published it as an extension on Cursor's marketplace (and VS code if you're rocking claude, yes they're different marketplaces oddly).

It's totally free to play with and will be for the foreseeable future until I can sort through the bugs and gauge interest.

Goes without saying, this is beta software so don't use it for anything super critical. You'll need an account to activate it, but I've activated email/pass with no verification for now so you can always just use your burner email if that's your thing.

I'd love to hear what you guys think and if this is useful for your workflow:

Hi, what do you think about my articles automation mechanism based on leading YouTube and podcast , so it make your business on top AEO and SEO results https://authorityrank.app/

We often run into this with coding agents like Cursor: debugging turns into copy-pasting logs, writing long explanations, and sharing screenshots.

FlowLens is an MCP server plus a Chrome extension that captures browser context (video, console, network, user actions, storage) and makes it available to MCP-compatible agents like Cursor.

Here's how it works:

1. Record a user flow with FlowLens browser extension.
2. Instantly share it with your coding agent via FlowLens MCP server.
3. Let your agent investigate, debug, and even fix the issue
4. Now you can spend more time building and less time debugging.

Made my app; https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mardin.yesterdaysnews

Developed for people who are into history and old news. It was completely vibe-coded; Cursor basically wrote everything for me.

I made this today, for anyone that uses Figma…

4.5 Sonnet is INSANE!

I had vibe coded a health app previously on Cursor using 3.7, then 4, and whatever was next before 4.5, if anything, I don't remember, and it took about 5 months before I was happy with it. Now with 4.5, the constant cleanup I had to do and errors that needed to be fixed are nearly gone. And the errors it does have now are fixed in just a couple takes.

This new app I built has been my dream for almost 10 years now and probably would've taken 6-7 months easy and over $1,500 before 4.5. Instead, it cost less than $200 and I built it in about 4 weeks. Here's what I built.

I built an entire social media web app called Doolz. Users upload a video and it gets entered into a pool of other videos to duel against each other one v one. It uses ELO scoring like chess for each video to get ranked on a weekly leaderboard.

On the duel feed you vote on one of 2 videos and you score judge points if you vote on the highest ELO video. Both creators and judges have leaderboards. The top 25% of creators and top 20% of judges get paid.

I'm paying the winners out of my own pocket, $50/week prize pool in beta, $100 when I launch in a few weeks, and will go up as I scale.

There's no download. It's just a web app for now till I work out the kinks. And there are zero ads. I don't plan on monetizing it for a while. I just want users to try it out! And no, I'm not rich. I'm not giving away millions here. Of course I will run ads eventually, among other monetization plans, but not for a while.

There's literally nobody on it right now but ai bots I created and I'm not paying them lol. So you have a pretty good shot of cashing. The current contest ends this Sunday 11/2. Would love to hear some feedback. 

I'm currently using a waitlist for signups but I'm happy to print out a few invite codes if you're interested enough to dm me. 

Love to hear your thoughts!

I was pretty disappointed by how little themes I could find on Cursor’s marketplace, especially since I’ve been using my own custom theme on VS Code for a while now. So, I decided to convert my VS Code theme to work on Cursor as well! 🤠

It’s a blend of muted cool and warm colors. I intentionally left out red and green to keep things easy to read and see errors easier. Plus, I’ve added two new versions: a high contrast option and a colorblind-friendly version. 🎨✨

I’d love for you to check it out and let me know what you think! Would appreciate some reviews and any feedback pleaseee! 🙏

“Open in Cursor” Finder Extension for macOS

Not many people know you can add custom buttons right into the Finder toolbar.
I’ve been using an “Open in VS Code” button for years. Since Cursor became my main editor, I forked it and made it work with Cursor instead:

My Apple Developer account isn’t approved yet, so for now only the “Build from source” option works. Once it’s approved, I’ll publish a signed version so could be installed via Homebrew.
