There is no denying that AI coding assistants like Cursor and Windsurf are extremely powerful, but their biggest limitation right now is they hallucinate a LOT when working with specific tools and frameworks.
We need a way to easily provide documentation for our favorite frameworks and tools to the AI coding assistant in a way it can truly understand, and I have found a tool (an MCP server) that does exactly this – Context7!
In this video, I’ll show you how you can get up and running with Context7 in minutes (for free) in any AI coding assistant to level up your AI coding game.

Check out Scrimba if you’re serious about mastering full stack development. AI coding assistants are a powerful way to get you started, but it’s more crucial then ever to have a solid foundation for frontend and backend development!
