Switching to Cursor

Editorial suggestion — not a checked fact

Choose it when: The project lives in a normal Git repository and you want a local editor instead of a hosted workspace.

What changes: Clone the repository locally and open it in Cursor; Replit-specific configuration (its hosted environment, secrets) must be reproduced.

What you give up: You take on local environment setup that the hosted workspace previously handled for you.

Switching to GitHub Copilot

Editorial suggestion — not a checked fact

Choose it when: You keep using a hosted or local editor but want the assistant attached to your GitHub account and organisation.

What changes: Install the Copilot extension in your editor of choice; the hosted Replit workspace keeps working alongside it.

What you give up: Copilot assists inside an editor; it does not replace a hosted development environment.
