How do I install MSBUILD on OSX?

msbuild

f#

Sorry for the simple question, but I already didn't find the answer on google. And there is an answer here, which seem outdated.

In the releases MS just provide the source.

So a link would be useful.

Does MSBuild work on Mac?

On the Mac, you can use any of the following methods to build your application: Visual Studio for Mac, MSBuild command-line tools, or Azure Pipelines.

How do I install MSBuild?

To install MSBuild on a system that doesn't have Visual Studio, go to Build Tools for Visual Studio 2019, or install the . NET SDK. If you have Visual Studio, then you already have MSBuild installed. With Visual Studio 2022, it's installed under the Visual Studio installation folder.

Where can I find MSBuild?

MSBuild is installed in the \Current folder under each version of Visual Studio, and the executables are in the \Bin subfolder.

What is the difference between MSBuild and Visual Studio build?

Visual Studio determines the build order and calls into MSBuild separately (as needed), all completely under Visual Studio's control. Another difference arises when MSBuild is invoked with a solution file, MSBuild parses the solution file, creates a standard XML input file, evaluates it, and executes it as a project.

Msbuild is contained in the Mono release.

Then you might need to add the Mono bin directory to path.

# in zsh
path+=('/Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/Current/bin')
