What's with the edited title "it's Cursor clone".

Unless it's literally a Cursor clone, I'd request to change it to describe the product category.

Cursor by no means defines the whole category. Not even close.

By vscode you mean atom clone with extra tools slapped on top, right?

And with atom you mean Notepad++ with extra tools slapped on top?

To be fair, npp is not using electron. Atom is.

To be even more fair, the category used to be sublime clones. Sublime was on a crazy run in the early 2010s and there were various attempts at an "Open source Sublime".
