Hello everyone, Let the 2021.1 EAP begin! We’ve just published ReSharper 2021.1 EAP1, let's see what’s inside. ReSharper Code Analysis There’s a new inspection that checks whether an auto-property can be replaced with a computed property, along with a quick-fix to make the replacement. ReSharper now suggests using the range operator instead of Slice and Substring when doing so simplifies

One of the most exciting features in .NET 5 and C# 9 are source generators. They enable us to hook into the compilation pipeline that is executed for our projects, analyze source files that are to be compiled, and provide additional source code for our final assembly. In other words, we can take advantage of compile-time metaprogramming! Are you performing expensive reflection operations? Do you n

Hello everyone, Please welcome ReSharper 2020.3 EAP1. It’s only the beginning of the release cycle, but we’ve already got something to show you!

We've just released the Azure Toolkit for Rider 2020.2, and want to share what's new. On the feature side, you can now work with the Azurite storage emulator from within Rider. If you're developing Azure Functions, we've added code completion for timer triggers, and now auto-detect the core tools if you already have them installed. Log streaming for web- and function apps has been added, so you ca

Hi all, Today we are launching the Rider for Unreal Engine Public Preview! This marks another important step toward making Rider a standalone, all-in-one, cross-platform Game Dev IDE! In this post I will describe the tool and how you can try it, but first, let me briefly go through the family of C* tools we have and comment on why Rider is right for developing with the Unreal Engine.

We're always excited to ship Rider test runner updates to our early adopters. Developers running the latest Rider 2020.1 EAP may have noticed some positive changes to the unit testing window and the test runner. Let's walk through some of the more notable enhancements: reworked toolbars that make working with sessions and individual tests easier, a grouping of various test statuses that help sp

For the first 2020.1 EAP build, we didn’t set our sights on implementing any new big features or changing the world. Instead, we put a lot of effort into polishing and jazzing up the tons of existing features to make them better and more user-friendly for you. Debugger engine Now you can detach from a process initially started under the debugger without terminating the app. Smart Step Int

In the latest Rider 2019.3 Early Access Preview (EAP) build, we've started experimenting with user interface and experience improvements when working with version control systems (VCS) like Git: New and improved Commit tool window Renamed the version control tool window to Repository An in-editor diff preview (shelved changes are also previewed in the editor) Let's have a closer look! 

We introduced Windows Forms support in Rider 2019.1, and have been working hard on improvements. While Microsoft provides a standard set of controls with Windows Forms, many development teams make use of third-party control libraries, such as those by Telerik, DevExpress, Syncfusion, ComponentOne or Infragistics. The latest Rider 2019.2 Early Access Preview (EAP) adds better support for third-p

The latest Rider 2019.2 Early Access Preview (EAP) brings a bunch of updates to the built-in NuGet client!
