continue(yc) is an open source vscode extension. The best thing about cursor is their auto complete feature, their own fine-tuned model. It will be a while for others to build something close to it.
How much better is cursor than continue?
I've been trying continue with codestral and am only moderately impressed so far.
Not sure about continue, but I use Cursor for work, and it's really good at predicting simple operations. I rarely use it to actually generate code but it's pretty good at completing the code I'm already writing / the thing I'm already doing.
If you want to talk about in house autocomplete models, Supermaven has superior autocomplete, IMO.
