There are many alternatives to Mono for Linux if you are looking for a replacement. The best Linux alternative is Qt, which is both free and Open Source. If that doesn't suit you, our users have ranked seven alternatives to Mono and four of them are available for Linux so hopefully you can find a suitable replacement. Other interesting Linux alternatives to Mono are .NET Framework, .NET Core and .NET Micro Framework for Linux.
Qt is a cross-platform application framework that is widely used for developing application software that can be run on various software and hardware platforms with little or no change in the underlying codebase, while having the power and speed of native applications.
The .NET Framework is a software framework developed by Microsoft that runs primarily on Microsoft Windows. It includes a large library and provides language interoperability (each language can use code written in other languages) across several programming languages.
.NET Core is a cross-platform free and open-source managed software framework similar to .NET Framework. It consists of CoreCLR, a complete cross-platform runtime implementation of CLR, the virtual machine that manages the execution of .NET programs.
.NET Micro Framework for Linux (NETMF Linux) is sample porting code including complete OS facility. We provide the code for Eddy, Embedded ARM architecture Linux board. The source codes can be ported to any other architectures and platforms, if the cross-toolchain is available.
