Mono Tools for Visual Studio 1.0 was just released which allows you to develop and debug mono applications in Visual Studio.
Per the website:
“Mono Tools for Visual Studio is a commercial add-in for Microsoft Visual Studio that enables developers to write .NET applications for non-Windows platforms within their preferred development environment. It allows developers to build, debug and deploy .NET applications on Linux, while continuing to leverage the extensive ecosystem of code, libraries, and tools available for .NET.
Mono Tools integrates several key pieces of functionality directly into Visual Studio's menu system:
- Analyze for Mono Migration - Scan open projects for compatibility with Mono while developing, and navigate directly to issues from the Error List within Visual Studio
- Run on Mono on Windows - Test against Mono on Windows to isolate issues arising from differences between Mono and .NET.
- Run on Mono on Linux - Deploy and run your application on Mono on Linux with minimal effort.
- Debug on Mono on Linux - Remotely debug your application running on the target platform”
