#dotnet people! I know you’re out there. What’s your dev toolkit? Things you can’t live without, you bring them with you from job to job.

Extensions, apps, keyboard configs, IDEs, CLIs, XYZs, all of it!

I might be needing these soon. 🤞

@box464 I used to be really into Rider and for starting out I think that is still the best option. Linqpad is another one of those tools that are really helpful in offering a playground (although that might have gotten replaced by the dotnet run script.cs).
But then I switched job and Rider was not allowed, so now I work via SSH (coder,com) in vscode, with vim plugin (after finally switching to qwerty). I don't really like this setup and I think the SSH gets in the way more then it actually solves issues. Next step would be full on neovim setup, but strangely our firewall blocks the treesitter domain, and I haven't bothered going beyond that.
I do quite a lot of things in the terminal (sometimes Windows Terminal, usually just vscode builtin terminal), most of it through docker and compose.
Postman or insomnia are also pretty much required for any kind of api development.

@wiezy_kwri Ah I’m an old postman user but recently tried Bruno. Looking at insomnia, haven’t heard of that one. Thanks.

Going full command line for dotnet work, respect!
