It is definitely more performant in my experience. Occasional hiccups happen as well, but way less than with VS. Please note my experience with VS 22 is a bit dated because I moved to Rider a few versions ago (probably 17.8 or 17.9). Additionally, I haven't really used VS without the ReSharper plugin extensively so that's what I can compare Rider to. Regarding your points: > MAUI No personal experience yet unfortunately on my part > Code completion At least on par, basically ReSharper with a few extras. Navigation and refactoring is great and comprehensive. > IIS Also no personal experience > Debugging Great debugger IMHO. Matches VS, predictive debugging is nice (deemphasizes branches it knows won't run), breakpoint conditions are great (only break on a certain thread, after another breakpoint had been hit, after n hits, ...), shows return values in the watch list automatically, etc. > Look & feel Probably personal preference: I prefer its more modern and focused look over VS. If you're into that, its Vim emulation plugin is superb. > WPF Not its strong suit. VS is way better here. Rider only has a preview. Annoying: it doesn't use themes for DevExpress-libraries correctly in one project at work. > file explorer Pretty much like VS > Git integration In my experience nicer than in VS. Exposes git's features more easily than VS. Take it with a grain of salt because I use the CLI mostly anyway. I hope this helps a bit. But you're probably better off trying it for a while if you can.
