How to use minimal templates with Cursor
Pick a design
Choose a minimal design above and open it to see it live.
Copy the template
Copy the template from its page. It is one HTML file with no dependencies.
Set up Cursor
Save the template in your project and add a project rule in .cursor/rules that tells Agent to follow it, then reference the file with @ in your prompt.
Prompt, then refine
Paste it and describe your product. Then follow up with: "@template.html Build this section as a component in our codebase. Match the template's spacing and type scale; reuse our existing Button."
What makes a good minimal section
Common types: text-led landing pages, minimal heroes, simple pricing and quiet portfolios.
Lots of space
Space does the work that decoration usually does.
Strong type
Clear sizes and weights carry the hierarchy.
Few colours
Black, white and one accent at most.
Common mistake: Minimal turning into empty: removing the information people need.
Keeping the design in Cursor
Cursor is an AI code editor, so it suits developers who want to stay in their own files and review each change as Agent makes it.
What Cursor builds
Components in your project's framework, edited in place in your files.
Where the design goes
Save the template in your project and add a project rule in .cursor/rules that tells Agent to follow it, then reference the file with @ in your prompt.
Cursor and minimal sections
Agent tends to swap custom values for framework defaults unless a rule tells it not to. Paste the template again with your follow-up prompt if it starts to drift.
What to tell it
Keep the spacing and type scale exactly; when you add content, add space with it.
Set it up once with our Cursor rules template.
