JetBrains Rider is a cross-platform .NET IDE based on the IntelliJ platform and ReSharper.

Rider helps you develop .NET, ASP.NET, .NET Core, Xamarin, or Unity applications on Windows, macOS, or Linux. It provides rich editing support and code insight for languages used in .NET development, from C#, VB.NET, and F# to ASP.NET Razor syntax, JavaScript, TypeScript, XAML, XML, HTML, CSS, SCSS, JSON, and SQL.

Rider 2024.3 offers support for .NET9, including C# 13 enhancements as params collections, partial properties, and the preview field keyword. The Windows Forms Designer is now available for .NET 6+ projects, along with an advanced debugging capability to freeze and unfreeze individual threads. Game developers will be happy to see console debugging for Unreal Engine, IL2CPP debugging for Unity, and improved Godot support. Rider 2024.3 also brings expanded AI Assistant functionality, including in-editor AI prompts and customisable chat models. Enhancements for code cleanup, naming conventions, and remote development round out the release.
