What is SharpDevelop?
#develop (short for SharpDevelop) is a free IDE for C#, VB.NET and Boo projects on Microsoft's .NET platform. It is open-source, and you can download both sourcecode and executables.
Unfortunately SharpDevelop has been discontinued. It is still a viable alternative for VS for versions until 2016, but it doesn't support C# 7.0 as VS 2017 does. See details: http://www.icsharpcode.net/OpenSource/SD/WhatsNew.aspx

Said about SharpDevelop as an alternative
Only to a certain extent. Lacking many features and is no longer updated.
It is absolutely easy to install, easy to use, and graphical interface to make forms! I'm really sad that project was discontinued!
its very useful I have also developed very big projects in it for NI Hardware like DAQ and sbRIO

LeviGunter6added Spillcopy as an alternative to SharpDevelop
It's good lightweight IDE, but looks like abandoned. Official site contains last release and forum messages dated with 2016.
A rather Spartan IDE that does GUI designing and multiple CLR languages. I miss word completion, indentation guides, and relevant output (it flashed a prompt instead of using its Output tab and expects me to use a website to copy error messages to).
Eric 5 is more mature and does cross-platform GUIs using Qt.
