Tools & IDEs

AI-native IDE for accelerated delivery

Official documentation (opens in a new tab)

Overview

Cursor supports agent-assisted development on the same repositories and conventions as Visual Studio Code. Teams use it for faster refactors, test scaffolding, and documentation drafts while keeping reviews and pipelines unchanged.

Engineers work in Visual Studio and VS Code with EditorConfig, C# tooling for .NET 10, and extensions for Azure, Docker, and Bicep—matching what Factory templates and pipelines expect.

Tooling choices stay compatible with client mandates where required, but ConnectSoft repos standardize on formats and analyzers that keep contributions consistent.

The right IDE setup removes friction—our conventions let new contributors become productive on Azure-backed .NET codebases quickly.

Why we use it:

  • Same repo layout and EditorConfig as VS Code
  • Secrets stay out of prompts and rules files
  • Human review before merge to main
  • Compatible with MCP and Azure-hosted models
  • Repo-wide EditorConfig and analyzer rules
  • Azure and container tooling aligned with deployment targets
  • Debugging and profiling hooks for ASP.NET Core services
