Create projects and solutions

You can create a new project in a new solution using File | New Solution… or add a new project to the existing solution by right-clicking the solution or solution folder node in the Solution Explorer, and choosing Add | New Project.

When creating a new solution or project, Rider gives you a number of pre-installed templates, which are grouped by frameworks. There are templates to create an empty project, standard .NET class libraries and applications, as well as test projects. If necessary, you can extend the list of available project templates with custom project templates.

The list of project templates is searchable.

In every template, you can specify a number of options:

  • Solution/project name and folder

  • An option to create a Git or Mercurial repository

  • Language to use — many templates support C#, VB.NET and/or F#

  • Target framework for the project. Note that for a framework to be available from this list, it has to be installed on your system.

  • For .NET(Core) projects, you can enable Docker support and choose a container type: Linux or Windows.

  • For Unity and Xamarin, several other options can be provided as well, for example, the path to UnityEngine.dll, the target platform (Android or iOS), the type of app (blank, Android Wear, ...) Note that these options, too, depend on available frameworks on your system, such as the Mono/Android versions installed.

When you have specified the project options, just click Create. Once a project has been created, files can be added or removed by right-clicking on the project node in the Solution Explorer.
