Enabling Cursor for Designers and Product Managers - Activation
Learn how to make Cursor activation effortless for your team. People should open the repo, read the README, and with a single prompt "start the local environment" Cursor should spin everything up. Proper rules, CLI scripts, and supporting services should just work so no one wonders which file to touch or which script to run.
