Mono is a powerful and flexible project specially made to help developers create cross-platform applications. The aim of Mono is to run Microsoft.NET applications cross-platform and deliver better development tools to developers. Helps you create cross-platform applications. Besides running on macOS, Mono is also compatible with Windows, Linux, BSD, Solaris and Android platforms, as well as. Mono is a free and open-source project to create an Ecma standard-compliant.NET Framework-compatible software framework, including a C# compiler and a Common Language Runtime.Originally by Ximian, it was later acquired by Novell, and is now being led by Xamarin, a subsidiary of Microsoft and the.NET Foundation.The stated purpose of Mono is not only to be able to run Microsoft.NET.
Yesterday I decided to install Mono onto my MacBook to enable .NET development. Below I have listed the steps I took to accomplish compiling and running a Windows Forms hello world style application and packing it into an app bundle so I can run it by double clicking the icon.
The reasons for doing this are twofold;
* I spend most of my time at work professionally developing .NET applications using Visual Studio, so obviously I'm interested in using .NET also on the Mac.
* I'm thinking of writing an experimental Push Notification Service backend in .NET and would rather avoid having to launch Windows to do this.
Requirements
Leopard (Supposedly works on Tiger as well, but then you need to install X11 to make Windows Forms applications work)
Installation
1. Get Mono for Mac from the Mono Project website. I grabbed version 2.4, the latest stable version as of this article's publication.
2. Run the installer. Mono installs under '/Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework'.
Hello World on the command line
3. Compile a command line hello world tool:
hello.cs file contents
Compile using the 'gmcs hello.cs' terminal command.
4. Run using the 'mono hello.exe' terminal command. The 'Hello Mono World' message should be printed.
Windows Forms Hello World
5. Compile a Windows Forms hello world app tool.
helloforms.cs file contents

Compile using 'gmcs helloforms.cs /r:System.Windows.Forms.dll'.
6. Run using the 'mono helloforms.exe' terminal command, and if all is well a message box should be displayed.
Creating an app bundle
7. Use MacPack to package the .NET assembly into an app bundle, which can be launched from the Finder.
'macpack -n:HelloForms -a:helloforms.exe -o:. -m:winforms' on the command line.
8. Launch the app bundle HelloForms.app from the Finder to make sure it works.
That's it really. You are now ready to start development on your enterprise level .NET project using Mono on your Mac.
Additional tips
* MacPack has a really good man page documenting its use.
http://linux.die.net/man/1/macpack, or just 'man macpack' on the command line.
* Simplified compilation using pkg-config
Note that using pkg-config (see if it's setup on your system by running 'pkgconfig' on the command line) you can compile the forms app using 'gmcs helloforms.cs -pkg:dotnet Yahoo browser download for macbook pro. ' instead. Not a big difference in this example, but not having to list all needed assemblies will help when compiling more complex projects.
For .NET 3.5 compatibility, you would use the -pkg:dotnet35.
