Can I use C # (through Visual Studio) to develop a program for Mac / OSX?

0

I would like to know if Visual Studio (through a computer running Windows and C # language) can create an administrative program (simple, for 1 user, involving only a database interaction) to a computer running Mac / OSX . If so, what settings do I need to set in the IDE for this purpose (I recently formatted my notebook and downloaded VS 2017, but I do not know which options on the installation I should or should not dial, then I left the installation and ran to the Stack before proceeding.)

As I mentioned, is there any special specification for a simple database in this OS? Which tools should I use for this?

Ps: The person did not specify the OS, however I am completely lay in Mac / OSX

Yes, it is possible through Xamarin Platform . You can use the traditional Visual Studio , but it does not give much support to the Mac and will suffer. You probably prefer Xamarin Studio on the Mac itself. You have the product site requirements . Now there is Visual Studio for Mac .

And there on the site is documentation to start learning how to setup everything and start development . You can not put everything here.

Yes. Visual Studio for Mac already exists. A free and complete IDE for building modern applications for Android, iOS and MacOS as well as Web applications and cloud services. The Community version is free and is intended for students, individual developers and free software. It contains almost all the features of the paid versions.

Here is the link
