Just seems like not much is going on with the project… If you go to the github page there hasn’t been a commit in nearly a year. I tried (and failed) to get it to build on Windows before but that might have been personal error. I’m just wondering because thats the only OSS C# IDE I know of.
There is VS, which is just huge, and Clion which is payed. Other then those I don’t know of any other editors specifically for C# (Maybe VSCode with extensions?) If you know of some I’d be happy to hear about them
Just another quick find, the latest release on monodevelop.com is 7.6, but on github the latest release tag is 8.4? Whats going on?
EDIT: It’s Rider, not Clion, my mistake
No one updates the monodevelop.com anymore, the download page mention the github page as “read-only” despite the repo already accepting hundreds of PR.
Sadly if you need the latest C# & .NET support, your only real option will be VS, VS Code, and Rider. There’s nightly build for Rider that expire after 30 days, but you’re obviously in unsupported territory there. VS Code is good enough, if you’re primarily working on web/console project, anything desktop GUI is out, while Xamarin development experience will be comparable to VS Code dealing with Flutter or ReactNative (not as nice as VS, but better than nothing).
Thats really unfortunate…
VS Code with the C# extension has pretty much made monodevelop obsolete.
Well that’s kind of a shame IMO
