I did an experiment to see if it was possible to build an iOS app using the free version of Cursor. Result: Yes but... The 'but' part is where it gets painful. Because it took forever and the result was poor. The process was frustrating.
I did learn a ton (because I was forced to scour Google and LLM's for how to fix my code) so I wouldn't change it. But it really did show me clearly that you get what you pay for. I happily pay the small $20 per month subscription now.

Haha I never tried Cursor for free, but it sure sounds like a pain.
But yeah, from my experience, being cheap is not very helpful in the long run. Both technically and the mindset you grow.
Gave me lots to think about
How do I get my wallet onboard?
You force it. No other way.
It'll get used to it :P
