I think the answer is "Java with Intellij community edition"?

Just saying ... don't stick to one technology/language just because is more familiar, if other one is more suited for the task go for it. Using dot.net without the power of Visual Studio seems a bit stretchy.

PS: I hate C# as much as Java so I'm unbiased.

I second this. All of my exploits using .NET outside of Visual Studio on Windows have felt second rate. This isn't a knock toward the platform, it's amazing. I simply think that the tooling just isn't quite there yet. But still exists in a pinch.

Hi Adrian.
Thanks for your comment. I see your point of view. I also think that we, as developers, should always use tool dedicated to the goal we want to achieve.

My goal for the whole series of post about how to be a .Net dev in Linux world is to find out how I, as .Net dev will feel in a new environment. I'm not going to switch to the Ubuntu as my primary OS. At least for now ๐Ÿ˜‰
