great comparison, tested both too agreed about cursor currently producing slightly better code gen results + windsurf having a more intuitive UI for now for now sticking w/ cursor & bolt on @microlaunchhq
@MicroLaunchHQ thanks! great that you agree
Great review. I've used Windsurf a lot in the last couple of weeks, and I generally prefer it over Cursor. It feels more integrated and natural. I use Sonnet 3.5 in both, so I'll watch to see if Cursor delivers better code. That's an interesting observation.
I’ll need to test it across more codebases too to be conclusive
personally have seen better code generation from windsurf more than cursor
the fact that windsurf costs 2 times cheaper already makes it the best option for me
Interesting, I know nothing about Windsurf, bookmarked, ta Moritz.
Tl;dw?
Windsurf wins UI Cursor wins code quality
![Is Windsurf better than Cursor? impossible to say, but... it does one thing better: soooo... I spent an hour testing windsurf... and this is what i created... and app called "boop-boop" lol... one thing windsurf does is it searches the internet. If you've been watching my videos you know that i go to perplexity all the time to get code examples and docs. but with windsurf you can just say, "search the replicate top image gen models and add them to the chat we just created" It will search the internet, find the right model then write the code. This is great for replicate and openrouter. You can have one api key in your .env file then just tell windsurf to search for docs for [insert ai model] and it will just add it to your app. Impressed tbh.](https://image.24vids.com/tw-1892586758518210820/ext_tw_video_thumb/1892464464403828736/pu/img/bnt2n15UQC936IEZ.jpg)
