ReSharper comes with many useful features. However, there is always room for more. As we described in Chapter 7, Extending ReSharper, ReSharper can be extended quite easily using plugins, and there are many interesting plugins that you can use.
We will cover the following topics in this chapter:
- The ReSharper gallery
- Recommended plugins
Starting with ReSharper v8, plugins can be installed via the NuGet package manager. You can access it by navigating to RESHARPER | Extension Manager … from the Visual Studio menu. A sample view of this window is shown in the following screenshot:
The Extension Manager window allows you to find, install, and update any plugin available in the ReSharper gallery. You can also review these plugins via the web page at http://resharper-plugins.jetbrains.com/.
If you are using a ReSharper version older than v8, you can still use the plugins; however, you will need to install them using the installation package provided by the developer of the plugin.
