As the title says, you probably guessed it already. For work I mainly develop on the .NET platform using a Windows device, but at home I enjoy all the benefits of a good OS.

Now I kinda want to get my C# skills “sharper” and have some projects in mind utilising it, but I’m a bit miffed about the development tools and possibilities of deployment available for me on Linux.

Also I may want to coerce my boss to let me work on a device with my OS of choice.

Any advice from devs that are in a similar spot? What do you use for .NET development on Linux? And are there any cool multiplatform deployment possibilities (next to Xamarin/Maui) that actually let me build natively on Linux?

      I haven’t really distributed any binaries yet, everything I work on is just FOSS at https://github.com/MattMckenzy.

      However, I did look into packaging my HomeCast project in my own debian apt repository. It’s still unsigned at the moment, but when I get to it I imagine I’ll just use dpkg and gnupg2 however I need to.
