Because a lot of people are always asking, how are you doing this with Xcode?

Because I am using Xcode to do the iOS projects.

What I'm doing is I'm just opening the folder and the files in Cursor.

And now when I make changes here, it'll automatically reflect in Xcode and then I can run the app and everything.

These are the current two tools that I'm using.

It's Cloud Code and Cursor.

In terms of the actual strengths and weaknesses of these, this is why I'm using it.

Cloud Code is extremely good.

I'm actually using this model called Opus 4.1.

This is my favorite model.

It's probably the most powerful model, the best model there is for coding, but it is super limited.

They changed their pricing since Cloud Code came out.

It used to be unlimited usage.

Now it's very limited to the point where I probably can exhaust the Opus limit for the week in maybe three or four hours.

Maybe less, actually.

So I try to use it very sparingly, only for very, very complex problems.

So for very complex problems, I'm using Cloud Code with Opus.

But if I'm not allowed to use it because I've exhausted the limit...

What I'm doing for very complex problems is I'm using Cursor specifically with plan mode.

And I'm using, and this is what plan mode looks like.
