Café Cursor Manila 0b10

Café Cursor Manila was a working afternoon for technical founders, engineers, and builders using Cursor — the AI-powered code editor. Held at ALTO GROUNDS in Legazpi Village, Makati City, the event brought together people who actually ship: no passive talks, no slide decks, just laptops open and work happening in real time.

Ryan, an engineer from the Cursor team, was present — which made the afternoon genuinely valuable. The conversations weren't surface-level. People were asking sharp technical questions, sharing workflows, and talking honestly about how they're integrating AI into their actual development process. It was the kind of room where everyone had something real to contribute.

I brought what I was currently building, got some useful perspective from other builders, and left with a clearer sense of how others are using Cursor in production. Events like this are rare in the Philippines — a focused, no-fluff gathering of people who are actively building with the tools that are reshaping how software gets made.
