ReSharper Structured Logging

An extension for ReSharper and Rider IDE that highlights structured logging templates and contains some useful analyzers

The highlighting is a built-in feature starting from R#/Rider 2021.2, but the extension still contains some useful analyzers that are not (yet) implemented by JetBrains team

At the moment it supports Serilog, NLog, and Microsoft.Extensions.Logging
