Some questions about coding c# on linux
Using Visual Studio with Wine is not really possible. But you have other IDEs as options. You can pack Visual Studio Code with the needed plugins. You can use MonoDevelop which is the IDE from the Mono project https://www.monodevelop.com/. Something to add here, the Mono project is actually developed by Microsoft. And there is Jetbrains Rider, I personally use it every day at work and am kind of in love, but it costs you 139 € in the first year.
