How To Use

Requirements before starting:

1. Docker for Desktop
2. JetBrains Gateway or JetBrains Rider

Seriously though, just download JetBrains Toolbox

Download Dockerfile

From above, download the Dockerfile and add it to a folder/location on your disk. You'll need it for the next step.

Building and Running the container

Run the following in a terminal.

docker build -t rdev .
docker run -it -p 2222:22 rdev

Connect using JetBrains Rider

1. From the welcome screen of Rider, select New Connection.

2. Set the following values for the fields. a. Username : root b. Host: localhost c. Port: 2222 d. Password (prompt): root

3. Connect to your new container and git clone a .NET 6 project. Use open an SSH terminal link
4. Set the Project Directory to the path of your .sln or .csproj file. (for example: https://github.com/khalidabuhakmeh/GuidGenie)

5. Click Download and Start IDE.

Have Fun!
