Remote development overview

Last modified: 04 July 2024

Remote development lets you use the IDE interface on a thin client while having a powerful remote host to check out and load your project, index, analyze, build, run, debug, and test your code.

The remote host is a physical (Linux) or virtual machine hosting the source code and running a headless JetBrains Rider instance. The thin client, for example, a laptop, connects to the host and transparently provides full access to all IDE features.
