Rider overview

What is Rider?

Rider is an on-premise integrated development environment platform that helps businesses debug multiple runtimes and build software across Windows and macOS operating systems. The tool monitors running codes, resolves detected issues, and auto-inserts matching braces.

Rider allows users to import directives, gutter icons, and information tooltips for inheritance navigation, context actions, and more. It lets managers track unit tests based on NUnit, xUnit.net, or MSTest. It enables supervisors to connect to databases, edit schemas, and run queries.

Key benefits of using Rider

• Develop across Windows, macOS, and Linux with a cross-platform .NET and game development IDE that supports a wide range of frameworks and engines, including ASP.NET, MAUI, Blazor, Unity, Unreal Engine, and Godot.
• Streamline workflows with advanced AI-enabled coding tools and intelligent code completion, plus helpful coding agents that streamline complex tasks and automate routine processes.
• Enhance code quality with smart inspections and suggestions, helping users modernize their projects, identify potential issues before they arise, and maintain high standards across entire codebase.
• Integrate with cloud services, databases, performance profilers, version control, and testing tools for a comprehensive development experience tailored to modern .NET and game developers.
