🛠️ Getting Started

1. Install the Extension from the Cursor/VS Code Marketplace
2. Open the SuperDesign sidebar panel
3. Type a prompt (e.g., "Design a modern login screen")
4. View generated mockups, components, and wireframes
5. Fork, tweak, and paste into your project

Can I use my own Claude Code or Cursor subscription?

Yes, after you initialise superdesign extension, some cursor/claude code rules will be added, so you can prompt the agent to do design and preview in superdesign canva (cmd + shift + p -> superdesign: open canva)

If using Cursor - I will highly suggest copy the prompt in 'design.mdc' and create a custom mode in cursor with that same system prompt; This should give you much better performance
