If you would struggle to run code on your own computer, choose Lovable. If you already use VS Code or another editor daily, choose Cursor. Teams often use both: Lovable for fast prototypes, Cursor for the production code.
For non-developers, yes. For developers who want control over code, Cursor is better.
