Dev Container
Rather than installing a bunch of stuff locally, such as the right dotnet SDK you can use a dev container!
You will, however, need to have docker installed locally.
Rider
Click the blue cube,

Then press Create Dev Container and Mount Sources -> Rider

Rider will then create the dev-container, mounting Rider's backend IDE. When complete, you will be able to connect to the dev-container.

Framework

Docker
Having docker installed is required as it can be used for the dev container, along with running the services.
Misc
Make sure you have Git installed on your machine!
