## What it is
A curated awesome-list of Cursor Project Rules (.mdc configuration files) that customize the behavior of the Cursor AI code editor for specific frameworks, languages, and workflows. It organizes community-contributed rule files by category such as frontend, backend, mobile, testing, and security.

## Use cases
- find cursor rules for react projects
- customize cursor ai editor behavior for my framework
- set up coding standards for cursor ai
- get cursorrules file for nextjs
- make cursor follow project-specific conventions
- improve ai code generation quality in cursor
- share team coding guidelines with cursor ai

## When to choose
- you use the Cursor AI editor and want project-specific rules
- you want curated, community-vetted rule templates for many frameworks
- you want a starting point for enforcing coding standards via AI

## When to avoid
- you use a different AI editor like Copilot or Windsurf without Cursor rules support
- you need executable tooling rather than configuration file examples
- you need rules for a niche framework not covered by the list
