Cursor vs new.website: AI-Assisted Coding vs AI Website Creation

August 30, 2024

Emma Thompson

Cursor has impressed developers by making coding more efficient with AI assistance. But there's a fundamental question: when building websites for business, do you need to code at all? The answer increasingly is no.

Approach Philosophy

Cursor:

  • • AI-enhanced coding experience
  • • Faster development workflow
  • • Still requires coding knowledge
  • • Developer-focused tool

new.website:

  • • Conversation-based creation
  • • Instant website generation
  • • No coding knowledge needed
  • • Business owner-focused tool

The Coding Barrier

Even with AI assistance, Cursor still requires understanding of web development concepts, frameworks, deployment, and maintenance. For most business owners, this represents a significant learning curve and ongoing time investment.

new.website removes the coding barrier entirely. Describe what you want, get a professional website. No development environment, no deployment complexity, no technical maintenance.

Developer Perspective

“I love Cursor for complex development projects, but for business websites, new.website is just more practical. Why spend days coding what AI can create perfectly in minutes? I save Cursor for projects that actually need custom code.”

— James W., Full-Stack Developer

Focus on What Matters

Great businesses succeed by focusing on their core competency and using the best available tools for everything else. Unless web development is your core competency, new.website allows you to focus on what you do best.

The goal isn't to avoid technology—it's to use technology so effectively that it becomes invisible, allowing you to focus on serving customers and building value.
