Getting Started with Cursor now?

Hi everyone 👋

Let's get the obvious out of the way first: I'm new to Cursor. I have experience building apps with other vibecoding platforms like Replit, Lovable, etc and I've also built apps straight up with Claude Code.

A couple of friends recently were telling me that I should get Cursor and I'd notice a huge difference in how much better my development would be. They swear it's night and day.

But, I came to the subreddit (and others similar) and I keep seeing mentions of the spacex acquisition, of the drop in quality, of issues and more issues. I'm still willing to try Cursor, but I figured I'd ask the community first: What should I be looking at for? What are some things I should do right away to make things as good as possible for a newbie? And not to be toxic but like... should I just straight up try a different approach/app?

Taking a replit app to Google's Play Store

Hey all, I'm kind of new to building apps with replit using AI (I used replit as an IDE in the before times lol). I've tinkering with some mobile app ideas and I've noticed that the iOS route is way more streamlined than the Android side. On replit it seems like expo can handle most of the ios build and get it to appleconnect fairly easily.

So, could someone give me some pointers on the best way to get an app from replit to the Google Play Console? I got stuck in the building app steps with EAS locally in my machine. I installed it using npm, ran the eas login and eas build --platform android but the builds keep erroring out. I showed the errors to claude but the proposed fix seems fairly complicated.

I'm wondering if there are better ways to get this done. Thanks in advance.

(For context, I've never published an app to Android)
