F# and Mono, Best Friends Forever
With F# being the only open source language shipping with Visual Studio, it and Mono have a special relationship. Now that the Microsoft F# team's open source drops have been directly integrated with mono, F# is the only mono language implementation which is exactly the same as on the CLR. This means that as F# grows and matures at Microsoft, you can be sure that the latest features will be available almost immediately in Mono. Come learn about what F# is and how you can start using it in Mono today!
