Best Cursor Prompt for “Build a Landing Page”
Cursor works best with goal-oriented prompts that include @-references to specific files and directories. As an AI code editor, it needs clear scope boundaries — what to modify and what NOT to touch — along with direct action verbs like Add, Refactor, Fix, or Extract. This free template is optimized specifically for Cursor, achieving approximately 37% token reduction compared to unoptimized prompts while producing higher quality output.

What Most People Type
Optimized Cursor Prompt
Goal: Build a responsive, single-page landing page for a [product/service]. The page should clearly communicate the value proposition and include a call to action. Context: * Refer to @src/components/ for existing UI component patterns. * Use @src/styles/global.css as the primary stylesheet. * Incorporate UI elements and layout similar to @src/pages/about.tsx. * The agent should leverage its understanding of the entire codebase, especially @src/utils/ and @src/hooks/. Constraints: * Use React with Next.js. * Employ Tailwind CSS for styling. * Ensure the page is fully responsive across desktop, tablet, and mobile viewports. * Implement basic accessibility standards (e.g., semantic HTML, ARIA attributes where appropriate). * Do not modify any files outside of the @src/pages/ directory for this initial build. * Handle potential loading states gracefully if any dynamic content were to be added later. Output: * Create a new file at @src/pages/index.tsx. * Name the main React component `LandingPage`. * Include sections for a hero, features, testimonials, and a contact form. * The file should be a complete, runnable Next.js page.
Why This Cursor Prompt for “Build a Landing Page” Works Better
When you type “Build a landing page for my [product/service]” into Cursor, it lacks structure — Cursor has to guess what format you want, how detailed to go, and what to prioritize. The optimized version removes that guesswork.
It adds @-references to specific files and directories, defines clear scope boundaries, and uses direct action verbs — giving Cursor the precise context it needs to make accurate code changes.
