RoslynPad VS MonoDevelop

Also check out free open source alternative RoslynPad. https://roslynpad.net/

There is an alternative of LinqPad. It does not have a lot of features, but it is good enough for testing code snippets.

First - follow instruction in official Git account https://github.com/roslynpad/roslynpad:

Sometimes i use roslynpad to check some code sentences quickly at my work. I think u could use it for practise, its a really simple C# editor. https://roslynpad.net/

RoslynPad is similar but not quite as good. https://roslynpad.net/

RoslynPad:

if you clone roslynpad (https://github.com/aelij/RoslynPad) you can find samples. It already deploys with Roslyn (the runtime C# compiler) which helps a bit with integration.

There is RoslynPad but you have to build yourself on Mac OS.

An older version of the underlying source code remains available: https://github.com/mono/monodevelop

From what I understand MonoDevelop has been discontinued. Even their repo has been archived.

SharpDevelop and MonoDevelop are both dead and focused for devs which gives them different priority than apps targeted at non-devs, but they show how to put together seriously complex apps, and they're the ancestor of the Visual Studio for Mac.

Monodevelop

There are Linux binaries for MonoDevelop which is what VS for Mac is based on.

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.
