Keyboard shortcuts in predefined keymaps

Among all the predefined keymaps, you will most probably choose one of the following:

• Visual Studio 2022 — this keymap is recommended for Windows users who have experience with plain Visual Studio without ReSharper.

• IntelliJ/IntelliJ (macOS) — this keymap is recommended for users who have experience with IntelliJ IDEA or some of the JetBrains IntelliJ-platform-based IDEs and who preferred to use the IntelliJ/macOS keymap there.

• Visual Studio/Visual Studio (macOS) — this keymap is recommended for users who:

  • have no experience with other IDEs;

  • have experience with Visual Studio + ReSharper and who preferred the 'Visual Studio' keyboard scheme in ReSharper.

• VS Code/VS Code (macOS) — this keymap is recommended for users who have experience with Visual Studio Code.

• ReSharper/ReSharper (macOS) — this keymap is recommended for users who have experience with Visual Studio + ReSharper and who preferred the 'ReSharper 2.x/IntelliJ IDEA' keyboard scheme in ReSharper.

If you are using Rider on macOS, it is recommended to choose a keymap with the macOS suffix, for example Visual Studio (macOS).

To switch between keymaps, open the Keymap settings page  , pick the desired keymap in the selector at the top of the page, and click Save.

In addition to keymaps distributed with JetBrains Rider, you can install other keymaps via plugins, for example Eclipse Keymap or NetBeans Keymap.

You can create a copy of any keymap and tune it to your liking.
