The Cursor Visual Editor — Modify Layouts Visually

Gary Simon's hands-on walkthrough of Cursor's Visual Editor — praising the layout, dimension and styling controls, and flagging the tradeoff that every Apply triggers an LLM call.

Full description

A detailed hands-on review of Cursor's Visual Editor from a designer's perspective. Gary Simon praises the layout, dimension and styling controls and the design-token integration, but notes the major drawback that every 'Apply' triggers an LLM call — costing tokens and running slower than Framer or Webflow. Recommends switching to a fast model for simple CSS edits.
