This is inspired by Chris Titus' video on setting up a terminal menu with Rust using the Cursor editor's AI features.

As a programmer who regularly uses the Cursor editor and its AI capabilities, I found the video somewhat challenging to watch. This is not meant as a critique of Chris Titus but rather a suggestion for a more efficient approach. Familiarizing oneself with Cursor's features and improving prompting skills can significantly enhance the experience.

My goal is not to criticize but to provide a more efficient strategy for achieving the same goal, hoping it will be beneficial to others.

I am primarily a PHP-focused web developer and have never worked with Rust before. I wanted to see if I could leverage the AI features in Cursor to set up the entire project quickly. Below are the steps I followed, along with the conversations I had until the basic menu was operational. I didn't need to read any documentation myself.

Steps I took:

sometimes clients need landing pages for marketing/seo that need to live off the root.

all of these pages would make a mess in the page tree, so they are stored under /landing-pages/

I always do a hook (as was demonstrated in the CMS Critic Case Study)

wire()->addHookBefore('Page::path', function($event) {
  $page = $event->object;

<?
// usage: $page->summaroze($fieldName, $maxLength)
$wire->addHook('Page::summarize', function($event) {

  $fieldName = $event->arguments(0);
  if(!$fieldName) throw new WireException("No field provided");

  // get max length or use 300 as default if none provided
  $maxLength = (int) $event->arguments(1);
  if(!$maxLength) $maxLength = 300;

$searchdate = strtotime("January-2016") + 1000;
// get first and last timestamp of the given month and year
$getdate = getdate($searchdate);
// get the month number (e.g. 1 for January)
