Click to expand.Really? It's just a reskinned monodevelop? Yeah, that's definitely hugely different from Visual Studio Code. And honestly.

Ouch Microsoft. Way to attach your brand to a subpar product. I mean I get they've been trying to expand.net into the 'open-source' community.

But release a skin for monodevelop, don't reskin it and then say 'yeah, this is basically Visual Studio'. I mean I'm already annoyed by the branding of Visual Studio Code, just googling for how-to's and documentation on either is chaos let alone the userbase confusion between the two.

This just adds more layers of confusion. Click to expand.Of course. However, licensing is usually the deciding factor in whether it should be used or not before you get into the details of its pros and cons. For example, if you're a mid-sized gaming company, then VS Community is off limits, so it's not really worth evaluating its features. Unless you're willing to pay for the licensing fees of regular VS. However, if you're an indie developer or a small team (that can be counted on less than two hands), then sure, evaluate it. I won't say that one product is better than the other since it's such a subjective thing.

I have a coworker who still insists on VI, for example. All I can say is give it a try and see if you like it. Yes, even if it's just a rebadged Xamarin IDE. Hopefully it's still better than the vanilla version that shipped (still ships?) with Unity for the Mac at least. Of course, all that said, it's clear as mud how licensing applies to the Mac version of Visual Studio. Considering that MonoDevelop itself is open source.

Just be sure to check for that before committing to it.

Wpf In Visual Studio For Mac

@: Although Visual Studio for Mac shares a heritage with Xamarin Studio, it substantially broadens the experience, allowing you to develop for mobile, cloud and games. We added support for.NET Core,.NET Standard and the new SDK-style projects, and ported over significant functionality from the Windows version of Visual Studio, including the web editors, Roslyn 2.0, MSBuild 15.0, Docker Tools, and Unity Tools. Over time we expect to add even more. I'm sorry you're encountering bugs.
