Support for JetBrains Rider, especially on Linux

Idea shared by Peter Shrosbree - 9/17/2018 at 8:26 AM

Declined

Are there any plans to create a cross-platform version of GhostDoc for JetBrains Rider?

With the rising popularity of Docker increasingly my work is on Linux, and so I use JetBrains Rider.

GhostDoc is the plugin tool I miss the most. I would pay a good deal for this plugin for JetBrains Rider on Linux. Cross-platform support would be even better.

Hi Peter,

Thank you for the suggestion but we have no plans for a cross-platform version or Rider support (which requires the cross-platform support as a pre-requisite).

Moving cross-platform is a major effort that essentially requires rewriting the product from scratch and replacing all of the third-party UI libraries we use.

There is very little interest we see from our users at this point to justify the major investment of that sort.

Thanks!

Has anything changed on this matter? I think Rider is getting a bit more popular nowadays. GhostDoc is pretty much the only tool I'm missing there.

Hi Szymon,

No, sorry, nothing has changed at this point - it is still a great effort to port cross-platform and there is not enough interest to justify a major expense of that size.

Thanks!
