Build a Full Stack App with Cursor
Watch a complete app get built from scratch using only Cursor.
Lesson Notes
Building full stack with Cursor works best when you go layer by layer: (1) scaffold the data model/types first, (2) build the API/server actions, (3) build the UI that consumes them. Use Composer for each layer with explicit context about what you already built. The biggest mistake is asking for everything at once — scope each prompt to one layer or component.
Your Challenge
+25 XPUse Cursor to scaffold a new mini-project from scratch. Start with: "Create a Next.js page that shows a list of items fetched from a mock API, with a loading state and error handling." Get it running locally.
