The plugin includes basic features such as code completion with automatic import, syntax highlighting, refactoring, navigation or correct code formatting. The Astro plugin for Rider can be downloaded from the JetBrains Marketplace or installed directly from the IDE. This new version of Rider is the first to support Astro, an open-source tool that can create static HTML sites using popular JavaScript frameworks such as React or Vue while loading fully interactive components when required. The solution added to EAP 4 eliminates the delay and makes it possible to capture breakpoints set early in the application initialisation logic.

Previously, for most projects, the WASM debugger could only join after the application was initialised, as computing ports or initialising the connection took some time. Rider waits for the initialisation of the page target, connects to the debugger and only then starts loading the application properly.

This is achieved by changing the order in which the IDE launches the application. In the Rider 2023 EAP 4, IDE can debug the startup code for WebAssembly. NET applications, support for Astro tool, full IDE zoom, a feature related to importing Angular templates, and support for TypeScript in Vue template expressions. The latest Early Access Program for Rider contains such features as the ability to debug startup code for WASM. JetBrains released Rider 2023.1 EAP 4 on February 12.
