What development IDE are you using?

Question

IDE

I'm starting to learn C#. On the advice of uncle Google, I installed Visual Studio and ran into a problem - either my hardware is unsupported, or my hands are not from the right place - from a clean installation, a file of 8 lines was opened for 10 seconds, hanging three times along the way. It is impossible to talk about the long way "File-Create-Project-Empty Application" without mats, because each item has 2-3 seconds of frieze. Not to mention the "mde ..." design (hello from the 2000s and hello, ophthalmologist).
I would like something without dancing with a tambourine, so that it would be pleasant to work.
Hence the question: what do people code on?

Answer 1

Visual Studio is not the fastest thing in the world to develop.
But it's not that slow either.
If it hangs, it's better to upgrade your computer.
After all, your own programs will also be slow, which will interfere with debugging.

Answer 2

If your studio is pretty slow, then you can try using Visual Studio Code

Answer 3

Rider from JetBrains is a very, very good thing, though paid. For this money, it's better to upgrade your PC and use the Visual Studio Community. Moreover, you won’t use all the Rider chips, which means you’ll pay money for what you don’t use. Try to be patient, I have 4 gigabytes of RAM, a Pentium processor, a GeForce 710 video card and all this is in a laptop. I tolerate something like that, although I just probably didn’t run more than one file ...
To be honest, all IDEs will eat a lot and a lot of resources, Rider will only do a little better, but no more.
Give your characteristics in the comments, I will recommend you what to take as cheaply as possible.

Answer 4

Try neovim. It is also available under Windows. The same plugins go under it as under regular vim - which means that you can mold an IDE for any language. Well, the thing is of course very specific, especially for Windows users, but you never know if you suddenly like it. :D
PS But he does not slow down. That's for sure. Even if you run it from the iron. :D

Answer 5

Try SharpDevelop . Not VS of course, but it consumes noticeably less resources + compatibility with VS projects.
