GitHub Copilot vs Cursor: which should I choose?

GitHub Copilot is better for developers who want seamless inline suggestions inside their existing editor workflow, especially in VS Code or JetBrains. Cursor is better for developers who want a full AI-native IDE experience with multi-file editing, natural language refactoring, and an agent mode that can autonomously make changes across your project. If you're used to VS Code and want minimal disruption, start with Copilot.
