Rider 2024.2: Full Line Code Completion, Reader Mode, Major Enhancements to Debugging, and More. 

ReSharper 2024.2 and the latest versions of other JetBrains .NET tools have just been released. This release brings support for the .NET 9 Preview SDK, new C# and C++ features, localization updates, AI Assistant enhancements, and much more.

Today, we are releasing an update to .NET 8.0.400 SDK due to an issue with (MSBuild Crash when publishing containers)[dotnet/sdk#42731].

The .NET 8.0.401 release is available for download. This SDK includes the previously released .NET 8.0.8 Runtime and is in support of Visual Studio 17.11 release. The latest 8.0 release is always listed at .NET 8.0 Releases.

We are thrilled to announce the highly anticipated .NET Conf 2024, a free, three-day virtual developer event celebrating the release of .NET 9. Co-organized by the .NET community and Microsoft, this annual tradition continues to grow, and we’re more excited than ever to bring you the latest innovations in .NET.
