Using Cursor to help me explore and document my options for my homelab.
I've tried a few times to get something running and it is easy if you don't want full control and knowledge of everything, but I can't take not knowing things 😄.
What's really good so far is that it has helped me organise my ideas and research and it is cross linking, this is the best docs I have ever made. It is also thorough and I'm not getting lost reading the docs. Usually with AI, it does so many things at once and I end up losing track of things.
What helped was that I started with asking it what features it had to give itself context and focus and then I told it what I was hoping to achieve.
When I realised I wanted more, I was able to ask it to "add this to your directives".
I haven't started to build yet, but already I have some tasks to carry out, to test some assumptions before I start where normally I would just run into issues and get frustrated.
I have a good feeling about this. And best of all, the docs are really comprehensive with a simple guide backed by detailed reasoning in separate docs.
