As someone who has been using Linux as my daily driver for over a decade, and is now using .NET Core at dayjob, Rider is FANTASTIC. The latest EAP (early access program) which is about to be released is very, very nice. Absolutely amazing. They are the company behind resharper, which is very popular.
Can't stand Windows, and Visual Studio is pretty terrible as well (IMHO), it always freezes on my beefy hardware (32 core threadripper, oodles of RAM, NVME, etc).
- ygra 8y ago> it always freezes FWIW, VS freezes for me come mostly from Resharper. I'm still debating whether the small productivity gain is worth it. Pretty much the only thing I'm really missing without Resharper is the smart completion which VS doesn't do well on its own. It's kinda funny, though, how Jetbrains touts Rider's performance because the Resharper engine runs in a separate process. Something that Microsoft has recommended VS extensions that do a lot of hefty processing to do since VS 2008 ...
- SmellyGeekBoy 8y agoWe gave up on ReSharper a couple of months into using it. It's an amazing tool but the performance hit on VS just isn't worth it.
