Well!
I have a mac , and it took me quite sometime to figure out how to start with c sharp on a mac.
I thought I should compile my understanding for making your life easier.
You have two options:
Buy a windows machine to get visual studio on it..just kidding :)
Install wondows as virtual machine on mac with partition and get visual studio on that.
Or , just stick to visual studio code and mono!
Install https://code.visualstudio.com/Download // this is going to make creation and editing of files very easy.
then install

Do not use brew for this one! use the official link posted above.
brew one works fine only if you are not using a form.
