If you have a student (.edu) email address, you can get JetBrains Rider for free, that IDE is really incredible, everything just works amazingly right out of the box.
Only free option I know of is Visual Studio. Be warned, though, while it works and will give you IntelliSense, I personally find it really difficult to find things in the UI, I find it to be pretty slow, and I find the default keyboard shortcut mappings to be garbage.
Hi! I'm an aspiring computer scientist with interests in quantum computing and distributed systems. In this blog, I write about the useful things I've learned during my programming journey.
Also VS is kinda bad in many ways as MS focuses on delivery so users can do the QA and report back. Don't be shy to report bugs. I got really angry with Azure and Windows but they fixed some bugs in short time
The C# language server in VS Code is just kinda poopy. Try restarting OmniSharp via the command palette.
How do I do that?
CMD/CTRL+Shift+P to bring up the command palette, then search for OmniSharp, one of the commands should be to restart it.
It didn't work, sadly.
Anything else I can do (or worse case, any other IDEs I can use)?

I don't, sadly. And I can't really shell out money, since I have no online currency buffer, nor do I have money to spend.

So, does this mean I'm (almost) shit out of luck here?
Until the Language Server implementation for C# gets better, unfortunately I think so. Visual Studio works okay, I just personally dislike it.
Okay. I'll try to do some looking myself. But thank you for your help.
Heβs asking about VS Code, not Visual Studio.
Oh, my bad.

I have reported.
