If you want to submit a new rule that does not already exist in the Cursor directory, follow these steps:

1. Locate the Rule Index:

   Add your new rule in the src/data/index.ts file. For example:

   import { cRules } from "./rules/c";

2. Create a Rule File:

   Create a new file in the src/data/rules/ directory with the appropriate name. For example, if you're adding a rule for Next.js, name the file nextjs.ts.

3. Define the Rule:

   Add your prompts inside the newly created file. Refer to the existing rules for formatting guidance. Make sure your prompts are accurate, clear, and helpful to developers.

   Your prompts should:

   • Be accurate and related to the rule.
   • Be clearly worded to help developers understand and use them easily.
   • Be actionable, providing steps or insights to solve common problems or optimize workflows.
   • Test your prompts: Before submitting, ensure that your prompts have been tested and work as expected in the relevant development environment. This ensures that other developers can rely your contributions :) .

If you want to add new prompts to an existing rule, follow these steps:

1. Find the Existing Rule:

   Navigate to the src/data/rules/ directory and open the relevant file for the rule you want to update. For example, if you're adding prompts for Next.js, open nextjs.ts.

2. Add Your New Prompts:

   Add your new prompts below the existing ones. Ensure that your additions are tested.

When creating or updating rules, be sure to include the following parameters for consistency and clarity:

1. tags: Add language-specific tags to categorize the rule.

   tags: ["JavaScript", "Next.js"]
   
   

2. title: Provide an appropriate title that describes the rule.

     title: "Next.js Best Practices"
   
   

3. slug: Create a unique slug that reflects the purpose of the rule.

     slug: "nextjs-best-practices"
   
   

4. content: Write the content of your prompt here. Make sure it is clear, actionable, and helpful to developers. Be concise, but provide enough detail to assist cursor ai in completing tasks effectively...

     content: `your amazing prompt`
   
   

5. author: Include details about yourself as the contributor. This helps others recognize your contributions and allows them to reach out if needed.

   • name: Your full name or GitHub username.
   • URL: A link to your GitHub, Twitter, website, or any other profile you want to share. This is optional but recommended.
   • avatar: The URL path to an image or avatar that represents you. You can use a photo from a service like Gravatar or any image hosting service.

First, run the development server:

npm install

npm run dev
# or
yarn dev
# or
pnpm dev
# or
bun dev

Open http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the result.

• First, create a .cursorrules file in the root directory of your project.
• Navigate to the Cursor directory and copy the relevant rules.
• Paste these rules into the .cursorrules file.
• When using the Cursor AI editor (in the chat box or composer), inform the AI to "follow the cursor rules" to ensure the prompts align with the rules youdefined in the .cursorrules file. The AI will generate output that adheres to the guidelines set in your custom rules.
