Resharper favourite hotkeys
When coding in C# with Visual Studio usually you get enough help with Intellisense and Visual Studio shortcuts, which there are plenty:
Anyway, it’s very common to see developers using extra tools as Resharper. I’ll copy paste the definition from their website:
ReSharper is a renowned productivity tool that makes Microsoft Visual Studio a much better IDE. Thousands of .NET developers worldwide wonder how they’ve ever lived without ReSharper’s code inspections, automated code refactorings, blazing fast navigation, and coding assistance.
I have used it in several projects, but in the last one it is compulsory and it’s when I have seen it’s true power. I’m going to go through my favourite shortcuts and tricks from Resharper, it’s important to notice I use the “Visual Studio scheme” but there is also option for the “IntelliJ scheme”.

Go to everything, and you can use wildcards or initials.
Renaming, can include comments.
Extract a method from the selected piece of code which takes me to the next shortcut:
Expand and shrink selection.
View recent files and recent edits. And finally
Will show you a window with all your history in the clipboard, very useful when copypasting some code. What are your favourite ones?
