So I'm trying to learn some new languages, and I figured C# would be good. I went to search how to install it on Ubuntu, and go 0 results, so I went to VSCode and tried to write an application, but then got this: /bin/sh: 1: scriptcs: not found

Is C# installed on Ubuntu (by default)?

No. C# is a programming language that is used primarily for Windows-based solutions. If you would like to develop with C# and the .Net Framework, you may be interested in the Mono Project, which is for cross-platform development, primarily with C# and the CLR.

  • .NET Core has been available for Linux and mac for years. No one uses mono for modern projects
