Hey! I want to make sure my development environment is set up correctly in Cursor. I'm not very technical, so please explain everything simply.

Please check the following and tell me if each one is good or needs fixing:

1. **Git installed?** Run `git --version`

2. **Git identity configured?** Run `git config --global user.name` and `git config --global user.email`
   - If these are empty, ask me for my name and email, then set them for me

3. **Node.js installed?** (optional but common) Run `node --version`

4. **Python installed?** (optional but common) Run `python3 --version` or `python --version`

At the end, give me a simple summary:
- What's working
- What's missing or needs setup
- For anything missing, offer to help me install it

Explain everything in plain English. Don't assume I know what any technical terms mean.

Already have Git installed? Use this to make sure everything's configured correctly.

What it checks

  1. Git installed? — runs git --version
  2. Git identity configured? — checks your name and email
  3. Node.js installed? — optional but common for web dev
  4. Python installed? — optional but common for AI/ML

What you get

A simple summary showing what's working and what needs fixing.
