This article explores the process of developing a web app dashboard using Next.js, emphasizing the simplicity of vibe coding with Cursor AI. It outlines essential prerequisites like having Node.js installed and a project folder created. After initiating a Next.js project through the terminal, it highlights the importance of context for AI to generate effective code, suggesting that focusing on specific files yields better results, contrary to broader modifications.
The quality of code generated by an AI assistant will largely depend on whether it understands the project and the technology it works with - context.
To create a new Next.js project, we open a terminal and type the command: npx create-next-app@latest. It will create a new project for you.
Vibe coding for web can be done using only Cursor AI, simplifying the development process compared to iOS development.
Every time I didn't limit the context to a particular file or directory, the results were less satisfactory.
