The world's most loved .NET and game dev IDE
JetBrains Rider is a leading cross-platform IDE for .NET and game developers looking to boost productivity and streamline their development process.
Powerful
JetBrains Rider is an all-in-one IDE for developers working with the entire .NET technology stack, as well as those involved in game development. Its robust feature set allows you to develop a wide array of applications targeting frameworks like .NET, ASP.NET Core, MAUI, or game engines like Unity, Unreal Engine, or Godot.
Fast
Rider's architecture is designed for speed and responsiveness, flawlessly sustaining its extensive feature set. By offloading resource-intensive code analysis operations to a separate process, interruptions like UI freezes and text input delays are virtually eliminated.
Cross-platform
Why limit yourself to one operating system when your framework can be versatile? JetBrains Rider is a truly cross-platform IDE, providing a seamless development experience across Windows, macOS, and Linux. With added support for Android, iOS, and Mac Catalyst development, it also expands your project's reach.
AI Assistant in Rider is your go-to for speeding up the coding process. Whether you’re working with .NET, Unity, or Unreal Engine projects, the AI delivers intelligent, context-aware code completions, quick-fixes, and even boilerplate code. It handles the small stuff so you can stay focused on writing great code.
When your code throws an exception or your Git history gets messy, AI Assistant is there to break it down. It explains exceptions and deciphers commit histories, making it easier to troubleshoot and stay on top of your code. No more guessing – just clear, actionable insights.
You can tailor AI Assistant to your particular workflow with custom prompts, and the ability to chat with the AI inside the IDE gives you quick answers without context switching. Attach files to the chat to get specific code feedback and suggestions right where you need them.

JetBrains Rider is the first tool I install after repaving my development machine. I haven’t launched Visual Studio for months after I switched to JetBrains Rider. Working with branches has never been so smooth!

JetBrains Rider is my C# development tool of choice these days on both macOS and Windows. If you’re a long-standing ReSharper user, you’ll find it to be an almost seamless transition. I highly recommend the developer-friendly keystroke navigation and fine-grained debugger support.

An IDE can make or break a developer’s day. When JetBrains introduced Rider (C#), we jumped on board as fast as we could. Having been there at every step of the way in Unity’s evolution of IDE integrations, working with Rider has been nothing but an absolute joy. With the introduction of CLion (C++), we were so excited we created an integration plugin for Unreal. Both of these tools help our team on a daily basis, allowing developers to perform their tasks quickly and efficiently, all the while seamlessly integrating with numerous parts of our pipeline.

In Rider, I just focus on working with my code, as it should be, instead of fighting my IDE. Rider gave me back the joy in writing .NET code.

Switching to JetBrains Rider was a great decision. Our team has never experienced an IDE that can communicate with Unity in such a flawless and efficient manner. We would highly recommend JetBrains Rider to anyone who aims at improving the efficiency and accuracy of their workflows.

Really pleased with how well JetBrains Rider works on my MacBook. It’s blazingly fast and the debugging experience in C# is at least as good as Visual Studio. Also, it gives me all the benefits of ReSharper out of the box! Loving it. Thanks JetBrains for another great product!
Rider 2025.1 delivers full support for .NET 10 Preview and introduces initial C# 14 features, such as nameof for unbound generic types, first-class Span<T> conversions, and modifiers on simple lambda parameters.
The Files view shows your complete repository structure from the root, making it easier to work with full-stack projects, configuration files, and everything else that makes up your development environment.
Remote development with Rider on Windows hosts is now supported via the JetBrains Toolbox App. Learn more about how you can use the JetBrains Toolbox App to connect to Windows, macOS, and Linux host machines from this blog post.
Rider now integrates with the Unity Profiler, bringing CPU performance insights directly into your editor. The IDE fetches CPU usage snapshots and displays them inline with your code, making it easy to spot performance hotspots as you write and debug your Unity scripts.
