# Creating an app with Cursor

1. Create a new project using the [Uno Platform Live Wizard](https://aka.platform.uno/app-wizard), or [`dotnet new`](xref:Uno.GetStarted.dotnet-new) command and change `-o MyApp` to be `-n MyApp -o .`.

    This will create the solution the folder you've already created in vscode. For example:

    ```bash
    dotnet new unoapp --tfm net10.0 -n MyApp -o .
    ```

1. In Cursor, open the project that was just created (e.g., `MyApp`).
1. Open a terminal in the project folder and run the following command, which will launch the Uno Studio app that will allow you to [sign in or create an account](xref:Uno.GetStarted.Licensing) and get access to the [Uno App MCP](xref:Uno.Features.Uno.MCPs).

    ```bash
    dotnet dnx -y uno.devserver login
    ```

1. Register the Uno Platform MCPs. For Cursor, you can either:

    - Use `dotnet dnx -y uno.devserver mcp install cursor`, which writes the supported MCP registration for you
    - Or create `.cursor/mcp.json` manually if you prefer direct file editing

    Example using the Dev Server CLI:

    ```bash
    dotnet dnx -y uno.devserver mcp install cursor
    ```

    > [!IMPORTANT]
    > After running `mcp install`, open Cursor's **Settings > Tools & MCP** and verify that the UnoApp and UnoDocs servers are **enabled** (toggle on). Cursor does not automatically enable newly registered MCP servers.

    Manual configuration example:

    ```json
    {
      "mcpServers": {
          "uno": {
              "url": "https://mcp.platform.uno/v1"
          },
          "uno-app": {
              "command": "dotnet",
              "args": ["dnx","-y","uno.devserver","--mcp-app"]
          }
      }
    }
    ```

    You can verify the registration state at any time:

    ```bash
    dotnet dnx -y uno.devserver mcp status cursor
    ```

    To remove the Uno MCP entries from Cursor's config:

    ```bash
    dotnet dnx -y uno.devserver mcp uninstall cursor
    ```

    See [The Uno Platform MCPs](xref:Uno.Features.Uno.MCPs) for additional details about MCP registration and diagnostics.
