In this lecture, I will show you where you can find the most important windsurf settings, and you

00:06.880 --> 00:10.480
can easily access them directly from the IDE.

00:10.880 --> 00:12.400
It's just a bit hidden.

00:12.400 --> 00:15.680
I would have preferred a more intuitive way of finding them.

00:15.680 --> 00:20.760
But anyway, if you click here on windsurf settings right at the bottom, you're going to get two types

00:20.760 --> 00:21.200
of settings.

00:21.200 --> 00:24.960
First of all, settings that apply to cascade AI agent.

00:25.160 --> 00:31.160
So for example, we have here the terminal order execution which is currently set to auto or this preview

00:31.200 --> 00:33.000
window that we have seen earlier.

00:33.240 --> 00:36.400
And also you can access for example, memories and rules.

00:36.400 --> 00:37.920
I'm going to go here to manage.

00:38.080 --> 00:40.720
And for example inside here we're going to find memories.

00:40.720 --> 00:43.320
And this is a memory about this particular project.

00:43.480 --> 00:47.840
So this is just a few keywords a few information about the project.

00:48.000 --> 00:52.600
So that when windsurfer is working on it, it knows exactly what this is all about.

00:52.640 --> 00:55.400
And of course you can also edit this memory content.

00:55.640 --> 01:01.040
Actually, I have expected this to be a bit more advanced, but yeah, it's probably just explains the

01:01.040 --> 01:05.660
most important features and the most important technologies that are being used, and probably this

01:05.660 --> 01:07.580
is generally sufficient.

01:08.340 --> 01:11.180
Apart from this, there are also other settings that you can access.

01:11.500 --> 01:14.300
So we're going to have here also windsurf tab.

01:14.300 --> 01:17.060
Now windsurf tab is something that we haven't discussed.

01:17.180 --> 01:19.460
Just want to briefly explain what it is.

01:19.660 --> 01:21.700
This is essentially the autocomplete.

01:21.700 --> 01:27.180
So before we had all these AI agents writing code for us, one of the first AI features that have been

01:27.180 --> 01:29.780
added to Ides were autocomplete features.

01:29.780 --> 01:36.340
For example, if I'm writing here a variable which I'm going to name, add numbers, and we're going

01:36.380 --> 01:38.620
to see here that we're getting here autocomplete.

01:38.620 --> 01:40.860
So I can simply press on tab.

01:41.340 --> 01:44.660
And then windsurf is going to autocomplete this code for me.

01:44.660 --> 01:48.420
Or if I'm typing code it's going to suggest code for me using the AI.

01:48.740 --> 01:52.140
So this is what all these autocomplete features are all about.

01:52.380 --> 01:57.180
Honestly with the introduction of these agents I think these are being used less and less.

01:57.180 --> 01:58.620
But anyway, they are here.

01:58.620 --> 02:03.580
So this you know, in case you see this autocomplete when you're making some changes to a file manually,

02:03.980 --> 02:07.990
this is from where it's coming from and it is called windsurf tab.

02:08.470 --> 02:11.670
Apart from this, we're going to also have here the advanced settings.

02:11.670 --> 02:17.390
So these are pretty much all the settings that are related to Windsurfing General.

02:18.110 --> 02:21.230
Honestly I don't need to be here so often.

02:21.230 --> 02:26.350
But just in case you're looking for a specific setting, they're also here this search bar here.

02:26.350 --> 02:30.230
So we can search for a setting like font or whatever else you want to change.

02:30.350 --> 02:34.830
And you should easily find it here, but it's not really something that you need to use all the time.

02:35.310 --> 02:39.430
Apart from this, this is where you can configure windsurf.

02:39.590 --> 02:48.550
Overall, what I do notice is that there's nothing on models, so there's nothing where you can really

02:48.550 --> 02:50.470
configure the models that are being used.

02:50.470 --> 02:52.270
We cannot bring our own models.

02:52.710 --> 02:54.910
We just need to use whatever is available here.

02:54.910 --> 02:57.790
And that's the only way to configure this.

02:57.790 --> 03:02.230
So we only have some available models if we compare this for example with cursor.

03:02.270 --> 03:04.910
Cursor allows a bit more flexibility in that direction.

03:04.910 --> 03:07.950
But that's about it in terms of these settings.
