Jetbrains’ Rider IDE is now so mature that I use it as a better Visual Studio even on Windows. It also runs on Mac and Linux. Great code manipulation, navigation and refactoring tools, and great support for adjacent technologies like build and test tools for both the .net code and web front-ends.
Jetbrains’ Rider is interesting.
Can you code on linux using Jetbrains to create .NET 3.5 apps for a Windows target? 3.5 is just an example because the matching VisualStudio works more or less in wine, while I haven't tested 4.0 and more recent.
.NET Core is the way to go if you want to be cross platform

I do not "want" to be cross platform. I just want to use popular frameworks with a large adoption.
(Working well inside wine qualifies as popular for me)
I'd think 3.5 had a greater user base than .net core.
