SharpDevelop (#develop) is a free, open-source integrated development environment for .NET languages such as C#, VB.NET, F#, Boo, IronPython, and IronRuby. It is written almost entirely in C# and runs on Windows, offering typical IDE features like code editing, debugging, and NuGet integration.
Use cases
- free ide for c# development on windows
- edit and build vb.net projects without visual studio
- lightweight .net ide alternative
- develop f# or ironpython projects in an ide
- offline ide with nuget and nunit integration
When to avoid
- you need support for modern .NET versions (.NET 5+/.NET Core)
- you want an actively maintained IDE with current tooling
- you develop on Linux or macOS
