用Cursor IDE 來開發Android可行性

2025, Mar 24

實際效果

基於前面分享的用Cursor IDE 來輔助開發code
實測Cursor (vscode)取代Android Studio的可行性
直接跳到後面看結論

為Cursor (vscode) 啟動手機模擬器

透過自己手動開啟

安裝Android tool emulator

通常安裝Android Studio時，整包就會預設安裝emulator了
現在要在環境中使用，所以你必需找到對應的路徑，加入環境變數中

Windows 加入到 環境變數中

   C:\Users\你的用戶名\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\emulator

MacOS 加入到 .zshrc 末尾

   export ANDROID_HOME=$HOME/Library/Android/sdk
   export PATH=$ANDROID_HOME/emulator:$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$ANDROID_HOME/tools/bin:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools:$PATH

使用以下指令列出環境中可用的AVD模擬器
```
 emulator -list-avds
```
用emulator啟動模擬器
```
 emulator -avd Pixel_7_API_33
```

使用插件開啟模擬器

到marketplace下載emulator插件
以上圖這款為例，按下win/command + shift + p打開IDE的指令欄，輸入emulator
之後按下enter後跟著步驟走選擇要用的模擬器，即可

在Cursor中能一鍵Build Android apk嗎？

透過launch.json一鍵建構

老樣子，在根目錄下建立：.vscode/launch.json，並請IDE或AI幫你直接產生，加入launch腳本內容

{
    "version": "0.2.0",
    "configurations": [
        {
            "type": "android",
            "request": "launch",
            "name": "Android launch",
            "appSrcRoot": "${workspaceRoot}/app/src/main",
            "apkFile": "${workspaceRoot}/app/build/outputs/apk/debug/app-debug.apk",
            "adbPort": 5037
        },
        {
            "type": "android",
            "request": "attach",
            "name": "Android attach",
            "appSrcRoot": "${workspaceRoot}/app/src/main",
            "adbPort": 5037,
            "processId": "${command:PickAndroidProcess}"
        }
    ]
}

不過目前測下來，支援度在native android沒那麼全例如：使用name為Android launch的腳本，打開app時會進入waitting for debugger，但Cursor IDE又沒有android studio的debug工具，可以往下一步，使用Cursor (vscode)的debug action似乎無效

透過task.json來建構

透過自定義task，比較能用到過去常常在Android開發用到的工具來當指令，建構整個工作流程，例如adb, gradle, logcat …等等

在根目錄下建立：.vscode/task.json，並請AI幫你直接產生相關內容

這邊我放一個常用的(每個json object都是一個task)，有需要可以參考， (部分參數可以替換，或請AI幫你產成非hardcode，例如下方Pixel_7_API_33, package name…等)

接著使用快捷鍵win/command + shift + p 打開輸入匡後輸入Run Task，接著按下Enter
最終可以根據自己的需求，客製build flow

Android Studio常用快捷鍵在Cursor中能用嗎？

整行上/下移

開發時，常會需要調整程式碼的位置，或移到其他行測試效果
- 在AS 用 win/command + shift +↑/↓
- Cursor(vscode) 則使用alt/option + ↑/↓

複製整行

有時候類似的代碼，想要快速複製整行
- 在AS 用 win/command + D
- Cursor(vscode) 用 win/command + shift +D

快速補全/提示

以前在Android Studio常用的快速補全
- 在AS 用 Alt/option+Enter
- Cursor(vscode) 用 win/command + .

其他待補充…

在Cursor上純開發Android的優缺點

優點

使用Cursor內建AI工具，達成透過prompt編寫程式碼
輕量化
- 不像 Android Studio 這麼吃資源，適合低配設備。
- 啟動速度快
更高的自定義性
- 可以手動配置 tasks.json、launch.json，完全依照需求客製化。
- 可透過插件擴展部分功能，例如 Kotlin 、ADB 操作等。
專注於純粹的程式碼編寫
- 適合熟悉指令操作的開發者。

缺點

需要手動建構開發工作流
- Android Studio 原生支援的 Build, Run, Debug 等流程，在 Cursor 需要自行設定 tasks.json、launch.json。
部分功能不支援，較適合熟悉這些內容的開發者
- 例如 ViewBinding、DataBinding、Layout Inspector 等常用功能
缺乏 UI 設計工具
- 無法像 Android Studio 那樣直接拖拉設計 UI，需要全手寫 XML 或 Jetpack Compose，(若是熟悉這些的也是沒差)。
Gradle Sync & Build 可能較為麻煩
- 需要手動執行 Gradle Sync，或寫腳本去測。
模擬器與設備管理較弱
- 需手動開啟，或寫腳本去跑
Debug 體驗較差
- Android Studio 提供完整的 Logcat 監控、Breakpoint 偵錯，而 Cursor 的 Debugger實測後似乎不能用在Android native上面
- wait-for-debugger 問題。

故目前還是推薦Cursor, AS兩者交替使用，除非已經都很熟悉，就當作純編輯器搭配AI來使用
