You have a working local app

What you can do now

Working through this track you:

• Installed Cursor and Node.js, and used the integrated terminal.
• Wrote strong prompts and compared them with weak ones.
• Read HTML, CSS, and JavaScript or TypeScript files with guidance instead of fear.
• Iterated with undo paths and plain-language fixes.
• Added or ran automated tests that guard your task tracker behaviour.

That is a full local loop: idea, change, read, test. Many paid prototypes never get that far.

What "deployment" means

Right now your app runs on localhost, which means "this computer only." Deployment means putting the app on a server with a public URL so other people can open it in a browser, the same way they visit any website.

Deployment also brings new questions: custom domains, HTTPS, databases, environment variables, and backups. Course 3 will walk through those topics in the same calm, step-by-step style.

Course 3 preview

Course 3: Getting to production is available on the Learn hub. It walks you from the app you built in this track to a public URL, environment variables, a custom domain, and HTTPS, with a troubleshooting path when a deploy goes wrong. If you built a mobile app, the same course includes a separate mobile deployment track (App Store and Google Play) from the Course 3 page. Open Course 3

Keep building here

Until Course 3 ships, keep practising the loop: prompt, review, test. Small apps teach faster than big ones. Pick the next annoyance in your life, describe it like you did in Lesson 2, and let Cursor prove the concept.

You can always return to the Cursor track hub to revisit a lesson or mark lessons complete for your own sense of progress.
