Rider is currently the only IDE that makes full-stack development a breeze. Both C# and TypeScript feel like first-class citizens, which takes away the need to switch between multiple IDEs to get the job done.

Why Rider?

One IDE for both frontend and backend development

Rider provides rich editing support and code insight for a variety of languages used in .NET development, from C# and ASP.NET Razor syntax to JavaScript, TypeScript, HTML, CSS, JSON, SQL, and more.

Tight integration with web development technologies

Rider works seamlessly with Node.js, React, Angular, and Vue.js, integrates with frontend testing frameworks and package managers such as NPM and Yarn, and supports IIS and IIS Express.

Develop for different runtimes on any platform

Develop a wide range of projects targeting .NET 6, .NET Framework, and .NET Core, including ASP.NET and ASP.NET Core web applications. In addition to running and debugging multiple runtimes, Rider itself runs on multiple platforms: Windows, macOS, and Linux.

How Rider makes ASP.NET development a breeze

Support for various web frameworks

Choose from project templates for Angular, React, and React + Redux out of the box, bundled with the ASP.NET/ASP.NET Core templates, or use VueJS and other JavaScript front-end frameworks without any hassle.

Database and SQL support

Work with Microsoft SQL Server, MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, and Oracle without leaving Rider. Connect to databases, edit schemas and table data, run queries, and even analyze schemas with UML diagrams. Rider also provides a UI for working with Entity Framework 6.

Cross-language navigation and search

You can jump to any file, type, or member in your code base in no time, as well as find settings and actions. Find usages of any symbol, including cross-language usages and occurrences in string literals.

Debugging both client-side and server-side code

With the built-in debugger, you can debug both your client-side and server-side code, and even run JavaScript code snippets in the interactive debugger console. You can also debug your code on any machine you have SSH access to, and you can use a remote debug agent to help establish an SSH connection for you.

Endpoints support

Explore and navigate to any ASP.NET Core endpoint in both backend and frontend code. If there’s an OpenAPI specification in your solution, Rider can recognize endpoints and make testing it easier using Rider’s built-in HTTP Client.

Sophisticated package management

With the built-in NuGet support, Rider lets you smoothly install and manage packages, package sources, and NuGet caches. There is also support for NPM and Yarn to help you work with ASP.NET Core and JavaScript libraries.

Rider has been my go-to IDE for .NET for quite some time – the productivity I gain from it is insane! However, my role also involves frontend development in both Angular and React – and impressively, I’ve found that I have no reason to switch IDEs for the frontend side of things. Just like with .NET, Rider also gives an incredible linting, refactoring, and productive experience for frontend development too. Oh, and it’s insanely fast too!

Rider in particular is much better at working with Blazor than VS (VS2019 made it awkward to add new Blazor components) – been using it on my stream the past couple of weeks. In addition to that, it loads big solutions much much faster.
