Description
Several open issues indicate strong user interest in better support and expanded availability of Azure Tools for Java across all JetBrains IDEs, beyond just IntelliJ IDEA. This is particularly relevant for Rider, which is known to have a large Azure as well as Unity user base. The community frequently requests that JetBrains engage directly to help make the toolkit available in more IDEs and support use cases such as Kusto completion and Azure Functions development regardless of IDE choice.
Linked previous reports and feature requests include:
- Support for additional JetBrains IDEs (#8506)
- Azure Toolkit for All JetBrains IDE (#7788)
- Make Azure Toolkit for IntelliJ compatible with all JetBrains IDE (#5629)
- Support for PyCharm (#4365)
We encourage JetBrains to consider collaborating to enable official support for all JetBrains IDEs, as this would benefit many Azure developers who currently face gaps, especially those using Rider.

Done would require an agreed plan or implementation for broader Azure Tools availability, including Rider and the cited Kusto and Azure Functions use cases.
