Conquer the Complexity ofCursor
Join John Lindquist, founder of egghead.io, for an immersive workshop designed to help you conquer the frustration of getting stuck with complex AI tools. You'll learn how to turn failures into successes by mastering Agents, Ask, and Custom Modes —plus powerful strategies for multi-file analysis. Streamline your development cycle and unlock Cursor's full potential.
Keeping Up with Rapid AI Tool Changes is Exhausting
The AI development landscape shifts daily.
New models drop (Gemini 2.5-flash, o3/04-mini) every week along side new agent-powered IDEs, new tools, and new 'best practices'.
It feels impossible to keep up, let alone know if you're using these powerful tools effectively.
Whether you use Cursor, WindSurf, GitHub Copilot Workspace, Codeium or the next hot thing, you want to make certain you are using your tools to the best of their ability.
Don't Learn Tools, Learn the Right Workflows
This workshop takes into account the rapid changes in AI development.
You learn the fundamental principles and repeatable workflows that John has used to successfully build with AI regardless of the tool you use.
You will understand agent behavior, tool calls, and context limitations which are the building blocks that explain why tools succeed or fail, independent of updates.
We've all had AI tools fail unexpectedly or get stuck in a loop wasting time (and your prompt credits) debugging an error it has no business touching or no idea how to solve.
You'll learn to identify signals that your tools are stuck in a loop and failing and proactively prevent these from happening through thought-out plans and the right amount of context for the task at hand.
After the workshop, you'll have a clear, sustainable process for leveraging AI coding tools effectively, saving you time and reducing the anxiety of constantly needing to 'catch up'.
This workshop is taught using Cursor, but the principles and workflows taught are applicable to any AI coding tool.
Productive AI Development on a Team
Trying to use Cursor or other AI tools on your team projects feels daunting, even impossible.
You know you need to feed Cursor enough context to be useful but inevitably you end up pasting thousands of lines of code or hitting token limit.
Just asking your tools to 'fix bug #1234' or 'add the new reporting feature' in a massive codebase results in garbage output, irrelevant changes, and the AI confidently modifying completely unrelated files.
You'll learn how to curate agent context to pinpoint the exact code you need for specific tasks as well as how to use Git with AI to revert any changes that get out of hand.
For larger features, refactors, or fixes, you'll learn how to build acceptance criteria for the AI to build a plan around to effectively implement the task at hand.
By the end of the workshop, you'll gain the skills needed to confidently use AI for targeted refactors, feature implementation, and bug fixes.
Essential Skills You'll Develop
Project Generation Mastery
Accelerate from zero to structured codebase. Quickly generate projects set up with best practices and solid foundations.
Planning & Cursor Rules
Refine your workflows with custom rules, and master step-by-step planning for smooth project execution from start to finish.
Bulk Code Analysis & Bugfinding
Leverage specialized debugging tools to isolate errors fast, and analyze large sets of files for deeper AI-driven insights.
Logging & Feedback Loops
Pipe error logs and test outputs directly into Chat or Composer. Transform each failure into a valuable lesson that refines your projects and AI prompts.
Refactoring & UI Checks
Use AI to systematically review your code quality and front-end design, ensuring consistency and reducing friction at every step.
Composer Toolchain Pipelines
Create specialized Composer workflows and agents that automate tasks you'd typically run in the terminal—speeding up your entire dev process
