The language allows us to write a plain text document that we can transform into HTML, PDFs, or other display formats. You can find elements of Markdown in your favorite chat apps, source control environments, and content management systems. Many blog engines are, too, including the one that powers my personal blog.

Arguably, one of the most significant advancements has been the ability to containerize applications. The ability to define, develop, and deploy applications within a reproducible environment gives developers more confidence to deliver a quality application experience for users.

Containers are a great tool, regardless of the approach: whether we're creating tradi

With the latest release of Rider 2020.3 EAP, we're happy to give developers more tools that make debugging more effective. As you may have guessed from the title of this post, the Immediate Window is shipping in Rider 2020.3 EAP. What is the Immediate Window? The immediate window offers a way to access the code of our application while it is being executed. While debugging, we can write additional code that can add to or alter the current code executio

Working with NuGet is an important part of every .NET project, and therefore its integration in Rider is one of our top priorities. Previously we introduced productivity boosts like import of missing packages, the NuGet quicklist and auto-display of README files. Now we want to show you some recent additions in the latest Rider 2020.2 EAP release. In this new version, we’ve added a new way to view implicit package references, extended the NuGet package list with a brand new context popup menu to access common operations, implemented a package search history, enhanced the config view with a pro
