InsForge and Cursor: build a Higgsfield-style app

This tutorial uses InsForge and Cursor to build a Higgsfield-style content generation app. The workflow relies on a cloud backend and hosted model access; it does not demonstrate running models on the viewer's own hardware.

The presenter starts with Cursor's plan mode, generates an interface with mock data, then links the project to InsForge through its CLI. Linking alone leaves the mocks in place. A separate request adds authentication, database tables and storage. The walkthrough tests email verification and image generation before expanding the app with video, voice dictation and a public showcase with voting.

InsForge's Model Gateway supplies access to multiple providers. The presenter explains where to inspect usage and costs, and why the app's credit allowance needs to account for model spending. Cursor acts as the coding assistant throughout, with separate sessions for chat, permissions and interface changes. The presenter also points out unfinished layout and Markdown rendering issues.

The final steps add Stripe purchases and deploy through InsForge Sites, which the speaker says uses Vercel underneath. The deployed app still uses Stripe test credentials during the payment demonstration. Live payments require replacing those credentials, so the checkout example does not establish that real charges work.
