Code completion

JetBrains Rider provides Code completion (IntelliSense) features for resource usages in code files. Wherever resource usage is appropriate, JetBrains Rider adds resource classes and resources into completion lists:

Move HTML to resource context action

This context action is available in ASP.NET markup when you select text or a part of HTML code:

After you choose this context action, the Select Resource File list opens, where you can choose a resource file to move the selected text or HTML code to. Whether resource files exist or not, JetBrains Rider suggests at least one local and one global resource file. If a resource file does not exist its name is written in italic; it will be created automatically if you choose it.

After you choose a resource file, JetBrains Rider replaces the selected text or HTML code with the resource usage and deploys a Hot spot session so that you could finish the definition. The resource key is proposed automatically and highlighted with a red frame; the input focus is set there.

Accept the proposed value or type another resource key and then press Enter or Tab to finish the operation.
