J is for JetBrains

Blogging A to ZFor day 10 of the Blogging A-to-Z challenge, I'd like to give a shout out to a Czech company that has made my life so much easier over the past five years: JetBrains.

Specifically, their flagship .NET accelerator tool ReSharper makes .NET development so much easier I can't even remember life without it. (If you've downloaded the code samples for this challenge, you may have seen either in the code or in the Git log references to ReSharper, usually when I turned off an inspection for a line or two.)

I'm just going to quote them at length on what the product does:

Code quality analysis

On-the-fly code quality analysis is available in C#, VB.NET, XAML, ASP.NET, JavaScript, TypeScript, CSS, HTML, and XML. ReSharper will let you know if your code can be improved and suggest automatic quick-fixes.

Code editing helpers

Multiple code editing helpers are available, such as extended IntelliSense, hundreds of instant code transformations, auto-importing namespaces, rearranging code and displaying documentation.

Code generation

You don't have to write properties, overloads, implementations, and comparers by hand: use code generation actions to handle boilerplate code faster.

Eliminate errors and code smells

Instant fixes help eliminate errors and code smells. Not only does ReSharper warn you when there are problems in your code but it provides quick-fixes to solve them automatically.

Safely change your code base

Apply solution-wide refactorings orsmaller code transformations to safely change your code base. Whether you need to revitalize legacy code or put your project structure in order, you can lean on ReSharper.

Compliance to coding standards

Use code formatting and cleanup to get rid of unused code and ensure compliance to coding standards.

Instantly traverse your entire solution

Navigation features help you instantly traverse your entire solution. You can jump to any file, type, or member in your code base in no time, or navigate from a specific symbol to its usages, base and derived symbols, or implementations.

I can't endorse this product strongly enough. Use ReSharper whenever you're using Visual Studio. It's worth it.
