JetBrains adds a debugger to ReSharper for VS Code

Read full article Discuss
JetBrains has introduced a debugger in ReSharper for VS Code, closing the last gap in its .NET development toolset for the lightweight editor. In the article, Isaac Levin argues that debugging is a "reactive process," while real productivity comes from pairing debugging with proactive static analysis that catches errors before compilation. ReSharper for VS Code offers more than 2,500 real-time code inspections, quick-fixes via keyboard shortcuts, semantic symbol renaming across the entire solution, and fast navigation (Ctrl+T, Shift+F12) — and now a native .NET debugger powered by Rider's engine. According to the company, this turns ReSharper into a unified, intelligent development environment that combines analysis, navigation, testing, and debugging.
