Mono can be used on Linux, FreeBSD, and Windows NT.
On Windows, you can use a simple menu-driven installer to install Mono on your machine.
On RPM-based systems, you can use RPM packages to install Mono.
If you don't want to install the binary version of Mono, you can compile the sources.
To get the most recent developer version of Mono, you can download a CVS snapshot.
Additional modules, such as GTK# and Qt#, must be downloaded separately because they are not distributed with the code distribution.
