The latest updates on all JetBrains products and topics
We have good news for anyone wanting to create C# serverless applications! We’ve been working with Amazon Web Services and are very pleased to announce the availability of the AWS Toolkit for Rider, a free, open source plugin for Rider that will help you build, test and deploy serverless application…
A little over a year ago, we ran a series of blog posts describing performance improvements we were making to ReSharper. We’ve delivered a lot of improvements in the releases since then, but we haven’t yet delivered on the big one - running ReSharper out of process. We thought it was about time we g…
In the latest EAP build of IntelliJ IDEA 2019.2 we’ve extracted Java functionality into a separate plugin. This separates the Java implementation from the “platform” part of IntelliJ IDEA and introduces some flexibility for the future. For example, we could include Java functionality as a plugin to …
Last time, we looked at Rider's new performance indicators for Unity, which highlight expensive operations inside performance critical contexts, such as calling GetComponent inside an Update method. These highlights are intentionally different to traditional warnings and suggestions because there…
At JetBrains, we're big fans of static analysis. Rider has over 1,200 inspections designed to warn about potential issues, or suggest changes, nearly all with quick-fixes to address the problem. Some are about consistency, such as naming standards and code style. Others warn about redundant, unused,…
Since we started development on IDEA, every nightly build of each IntelliJ-based IDE was tagged in the intellij-community repository on GitHub. After 18 years of development and having 10 products, we now have more than 68,000 tags in the repository! This many tags causes performance issues with git…
Perhaps the most powerful feature that Rider has is its code analysis, finding issues and providing quick fixes and context actions to help you improve the quality of your code. Rider's Unity support is no exception, and in this post, we'll take a look at what Rider 2018.2 brings in terms of Unity-s…
When building an IntelliJ based IDE, we've historically packed class files from implementation modules into a single big JAR. For example, for IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate this was idea.jar. However most of the classes in that JAR were IntelliJ Platform classes which are included in all IntelliJ-based IDE…
Rider 2018.1 introduced deep integration with the Unity Editor, allowing you to run unit tests, view Unity console log entries and control play mode, all without leaving Rider. In our third post looking at Rider 2018.2 and Unity, we'll look at what's new in Editor integration. (more…)…
Last time, we saw how Rider 2018.2 had added support for Unity's new Packages to the Unity Explorer. This time, we'll take a look at how Rider supports a key feature of Packages - Assembly Definition Files, with validation, code completion, navigation and even a little bit of refactoring! Let's see …
Rider 2018.2 has been another bumper release for Unity features and updates! Today, we're going to start a series of blog posts looking at what's new. We're going to start with a look at how we've integrated Unity packages into the Unity Explorer, and future posts will look at new code analysis feat…
Mea culpa! In all the excitement of recent weeks, not the least of which was presenting Rider at Unity's Unite events in Seoul, Tokyo and Beijing (and we hope to see some of you at Unite Berlin next week!) we forgot to finish off our series of posts about new Unity features in Rider 2018.1. Let's ha…
