This is interesting. I’ve dabbled in C# and .net stuff before, and the whole “open up Visual Studio and start a new project” step has often caused me either to choose a different language or not bother at all.
Before Microsoft started providing “proper” .NET setups for Mac, I used to rely on the fact that Mono provided a standalone compiler which could be run on a single file to produce an executable. But all the dotnet stuff requires a full-blown .csproj and the MS installer doesn’t seem to provide a standalone compiler anymore, so this is a welcome change.
