First Useful Open Source IDE

    by whitemice

Monodevelop is the best Open Source IDE available. Since the 1.0 release it has been very stable. The Stetic Gtk designer is a pleasure to work with. I haven't had a useful IDE with a working UI designer since leaving Borland's C++ suite back in the days of Windows-For-Workgroups and moving to the LINUX platform and Open Source tool. Monodevelop offers code completion, a class browser, and enough options to avoid dropping out to VI or make ... [More] files. If you want to build a client-side application for the LINUX desktop then mono, Gtk#, and monodevlop are the premiere solution. [Less]

monodevelop is not much more than a ugly editor

    by brndnbg

Given the fact that mono is a fork of a early version of #develop and has more manpower than #develop has at this point of time, it is nothing more than an example of how unstable and incomplete the mono platform still remains. While the ( also free ) #develop on Windows meanwhile plays in the same league as visual studio, monodevelop ( as of 28.5.2008 ) DOESNT have:

- debugger support(!)
- refactoring support(!)
- winforms ... [More] designer
- wpf designer
- class diagramm support
- stable code-completion
- support for c# 3.0. ( Okay, this is due to the mono-complier doesn't support it)

And it's not even nice to look at. The only positive thing to say about it is, that the only alternative for .Net-Development on non-windows platforms is propably the emonic-plugin for eclipse, that is even more frustrating than monodevelop. [Less]
