What is your favourite IDE for C# Development on Mac and Why?
I love the Windows Visual Studio, but I cannot seem to find an IDE as advanced on Mac. What IDE would you recommend for C# on Mac?

There is a mac version of visual studio

PS:
Even if there wasn't a mac version you can probably run it on WineBottler with mac. Atleast that's how I ran window only games on Steam with my mac.
(Although I have no idea how running a compiler would work out on something that translates window to mac xD).
I guess I didn't answer the question though:
My fav. is probably monoDevelop.
I actually don't like it much xD, but it requires no work to set up with Unity. I'll probably be moving to visual studio soon if I can get it on my mac too. It's also the only IDE i've used with c#, aside from code playground.
I don't like monodevelop because sometimes when writing a setter it doesn't recognize what you are doing so writing x = value might turn value into some other wacky command. Which is pretty annoying.
It also doesn't recognize infinite loops by recursion (atleast from what I've experienced with getters).
