Questions tagged [resharper]

ReSharper is a refactoring and productivity extension by JetBrains that extends native functionality of Microsoft Visual Studio versions since 2003.

ReSharper is a productivity tool for Visual Studio that aims to improve the developer experience. Providing additional features for error correction, code completion, navigation, search, syntax highlighting, formatting and cleanup, code generation and optimization, it carries out a large number of automated refactorings and streamlines unit testing using NUnit, MSTest, xUnit.net, MSpec (via plugin), amongst other features (all without the need to compile).

Current ReSharper releases support Visual Studio 2010-2019; previous versions supported Visual Studio 2003-2008.

ReSharper currently supports C#, VB.NET, ASP.NET, ASP.NET MVC, Razor, TypeScript, JavaScript, CSS, HTML, XML, XAML, MSBuild and NAnt build scripts.

ReSharper's functionality can be significantly extended with its Open API. In fact, most of ReSharper's features are implemented using this same API that is available in ReSharper plugins.

Is it possible in Visual Studio to rename the file being edited without finding it in the solution explorer?
