A good IDE for C#? 12-04-2020, 11:25 AM
#1
Hi everybody, I need a good IDE to compile and run some projects in C#, but I can't find something light and easy to install (my actual pc is pretty old, so I need something that doesn't stress it).
Everything I post here is fictional and only a fool would believe it.

I mainly visual studio, back when I had 2gb ram I'd run it with no other programs running since it was draining the entire RAM already. couldn't stand working like that so I got an 8gb, RAM is not that expensive and as far as I know its usually enough for your computer not to crash.

if you're running on a not-so powerfull machine, i'd recommend visual studio 2010, it runs perfectly under these kind of low specs, if you have a good-enough computer, you might want to try newer versions of visual studio.
you can also use VSCode but it isn't the best for c# apps.
my computer is also quite old, visual studio 2010 runs perfectly however visual studio 2017 can sometime lag a lot, but is normally running okay-ish

I haven't really used it on windows, but I think MonoDevelop should be quite lightweight compared to VS while still having a lot of features and user friendly.

I usually use Geany, simple and lightweight or even better than that is why aren't you creating your own version. Why not create on your own?
It would take up even less space in hard disk, not contain al lot of unnecessary features, could have even the features other editors do not have that you would like to it to have.

Visual Studio is the best solution here for GUI applications. If I am just writing a console app I just compile on the command line, it's much easier.
