wrote about design mode and how we're shrinking the distance between what you see and what the agent understands.
we believe the future of building software lets you move seamlessly between higher levels of abstraction and lower-level details while staying in flow.
design mode now lets you select multiple elements at once, use voice input, and execute changes with parallel subagents
Cursor just beat Codex with their design mode.
The latest design mode updates plus the new multitask agent mode make design changes in code insanely fast.
Here's my step by step walkthrough to designing any app or website with Cursor design mode:

04:10 Using the new drawing/annotation feature.
05:23 Live example of improving text hierarchy.
07:29 Using the multitask feature for parallel edits.
08:21 Explaining different modes of AI-assisted coding.
