Plugin Discontinuation Notice (Alternative available)

Open Socolin opened this issue 5 months ago • 0 comments

This plugin will not receive any more updates. A new and improved version is now available.

Why the Change?

This was one of my first plugins, and I built it without a clear roadmap. Over time, it became increasingly difficult to maintain and add the features I envisioned. Rather than continue patching an unwieldy codebase, I decided to rebuild it from the ground up with better architecture and extensibility in mind.

What's New

The new plugin significantly expands beyond the original scope and includes

  • Compatibility with any JetBrains IDE (not just Rider)
  • Support for Open Telemetry and generic console logs. And can easily be extended to support any other log systems
  • Supports non-.NET applications (Java, Node.js, etc.) and available without debugging the program.
  • Improved architecture: Designed for easier maintenance and future enhancements

Pricing

I've adopted a freemium model:

  • Free tier: All features (and more) from the original plugin remain available at no cost
  • Premium features: Additional capabilities like hierarchical view for a small fee

If you notice any missing features from the original plugin, please let me know.

This is a new approach for me, and I'd appreciate your thoughts on both the plugin and the pricing model.
