This may be a dumb question…but I was just looking into the Mono project and they have a section about installing Mono on Windows. But, since Windows obviously already has the .NET runtime can anyone tell me what exactly is the point of having Mono for Windows? Does it help with cross platform development or something?
Because Mono Doesn’t implement .Net 100% the same as the MS .Net Framework, it’s good that you can test out on Mono without having to run on Linux. Also Mono has bindings to make forms with GTK which MS doesn’t support.
