GNU/Linux Debian Adding MonoDevelop Repository
How to Add MonoDevelop Repository on Debian-Based GNU/Linux OSes – Step by step Tutorial.
And MonoDevelop for Debian makes it Easy for Developers to Port .NET Apps created with Visual Studio to Linux and macOS maintaining a Single Code Base for All Platforms.
Here are some Key Aspects of MonoDevelop:
- Cross-Platform Support: MonoDevelop is available on multiple platforms, including Windows, macOS, and Linux. This allows developers to work on their projects using their preferred operating system.
- Language Support: MonoDevelop supports multiple programming languages, including C#, Visual Basic .NET, F#, and various other .NET-compatible languages. It provides syntax highlighting, code completion, and other features tailored to each language.
- Project Management: MonoDevelop offers project management features to organize and manage code projects. Developers can create and manage various types of projects, including console applications, desktop applications, web applications, and more.
- Code Editor: The IDE includes a powerful code editor with features such as syntax highlighting, code folding, auto-indentation, and code completion. It also supports refactoring tools to help developers improve code quality and maintainability.
- Debugger: MonoDevelop comes with an integrated debugger that allows developers to debug their applications directly within the IDE. This includes features such as breakpoints, step-through debugging, variable inspection, and watch lists.
- Version Control Integration: The IDE provides integration with version control systems such as Git, Subversion, and Mercurial. This allows developers to manage their source code repositories directly within MonoDevelop.
- Extensibility: MonoDevelop is highly extensible, allowing developers to customize and extend its functionality through plugins. There is a vibrant ecosystem of community-developed plugins available for tasks such as additional language support, project templates, and integration with third-party tools.
- MonoGame Support: MonoDevelop includes support for MonoGame, an open-source framework for building cross-platform games using C# and .NET. This makes it a popular choice among game developers who want to target multiple platforms with their games.
So this Repo Setup is valid for all the Debian-based Platforms like:
- Kali Linux
- Deepin Linux
- MX Linux
- antiX
- Parrot
- Netrunner
- Voyager
- SparkyLinux
- MakuluLinux
- Elive
- LMDE
- Parsix
1. Terminal QuickStart
How to QuickStart with Command Line on Debian GNU/Linux
2. Installing Dependencies
First, Install Required Packages
With:sudo apt install apt-transport-https dirmngr
Authenticate with the User Admin Pass.
If Got “User is Not in Sudoers file” then see: How to Enable sudo.3. Adding MonoDevelop Repo
Then to Add MonoDevelop Repository for Debian
For Debian 10+ based simply play:echo "deb https://download.mono-project.com/repo/debian vs-buster main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mono-official-vs.list
Follow this Setup also for the Rolling Releases like Kali.
Instead, for Debian Stretch:echo "deb https://download.mono-project.com/repo/debian vs-stretch main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mono-official-vs.list
4. Adding MonoDevelop GPG Key
Again to Add MonoDevelop GPG Signature Key
Do:sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys 3FA7E0328081BFF6A14DA29AA6A19B38D3D831EF
5. Refreshing Debian Sources
Next to Refresh Debian Apt Repo Sources
Play:sudo apt update
6. Installing MonoDevelop on Debian
Finally, to Install MonoDevelop for Debian
