MonoDevelop is an IDE primarily designed for C# and other .NET languages. It is also cross compatible, as in; it will run under windows as well as Mac OSX and Linux.
Prerequisites
- Microsoft Windows XP or above, Mac OS X, or any Linux distribution which supports Mono.

- GTK# for .NET 2.12.10
- Kerbal Space Program 0.14 X1 or above.
PCL assemblies for Linux systems
Linux systems may be missing the PCL assembly libraries, which will cause compilation to fail.
- .deb and .rpm based systems can follow the instructions on the Mono Project site to add the appropriate repository, and the package name is "referenceassemblies-pcl".
- Arch Linux users will need to get the package from the Arch User Repository (AUR), and are looking for the "mono-pcl" package.
Setting Up
- Start a new solution either by selection "Start new solution" on the welcome screen or File > New > Solution...

- Click Project > Edit References and follow the steps below:
- Click the .NET Assembly tab and use the navigation menu on the left to browse to your KSP installation folder.
- On Windows navigate to (<KSP_win>\KSP_Data\Managed) or on mac navigate to (/Applications/KSP_osx/KSP.app/Contents/Resources/Data/Managed)
- Select both Assembly-CSharp.dll and UnityEngine.dll.
- Press Add then Ok, they should now be visible under the "References" directory of your solution.
Great, you're all set! Now continue to creating your first module!
