That sounds like a strange setup for C# unless I'm missing something.

C# is basically "built for IDEs", even VS code can't hold a candle to Rider or Visual Studio - vim and friends are a joke in comparison.

I like iPad form factor and would love the idea of using it as a thin client for development, but unless JetBrains come up with iOS client for remote development (which I doubt) it's a non-starter for me.

Also what's stopping you from charging form USB-C monitor and using it as a hub ?




I have a C# project which I can work with in either VS 2022 or VS Code. I find myself almost always using VS Code. I mean to blog about why, but performance is better and it is nicer for the non-C# parts like TypeScript.


What about Rider from JetBrains?


Not tried it, sorry


I always use VS Code to program C#. But i can't use VS on Linux, so i also don't know what i am missing out on.


You can use Rider, I prefer it to VS and it works across platforms.

I remote into a full Windows VM, we use VS 2019.

My USB-C monitor can't charge for some reason. It's one of the first 43 inch USB-C supporting monitors.


What app do you use? Screens?

It wouldn’t be stupid if they would, especially that they are moving towards an architecture of a thin client communicating with the extracted intellij core, even selling remote cloud offerings. Actually, it would likely bring lots of money to them if they come up with a seriously good ipad client.
