MacBook Pro and ASP.NET applications

I开发者_如何学Cs it ok to develop ASP.NET web applications on MacBook Pro ?

.NET is only available for Windows. There's the Mono project, which is not affiliated with Microsoft, which aims to create an open source .NET runtime and developer tools, usable on *NIX (including Mac OS X). If you want to develop .NET applications under Mac OS, this is your only choice.

Speaking of a MacBook though, you can install Windows on it using Boot Camp or run it in a virtual machine and develop in Visual Studio like on any other Windows box. And this is ok, I don't think anybody will confiscate your Mac for doing so.

If you have Windows running on the Mac then it is OK.

Another way is to use some .NET IDE for Mac (e.g. MonoDevelop)

The best method to do that would be to install windows 10 with bootcamp and then install .NET . The steps involved are pretty straight forward. Just open bootcamp and create the partition and select the ISO of windows. Once installed, tap the options key on boot to boot to windows. If everything is smooth, you can continue the development, else, just open bootcamp again and delete the partition.
