I have found this very cool project written in F#: https://github.com/fholm/IronJS
OSS is very nice, but i need an assembly. I would compile it by my self, but it seems that there is no free IDE to open a F# project (.fsproj). I don't have Visual Studio and there is no express version for F#.
I have found this site http://tomasp.net/blog/fsharp-in-monodevelop.aspx but it seems cross-platform doesn't include Windows.
This Monodevelop add-in doesn't work: http://functional-variations.net/addin/
Have someone already successfully used F# on Windows without Visual Studio?
You can downlaod the VS2010 shell from here http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=8E5AA7B6-8436-43F0-B778-00C3BCA733D3&displaylang=en
Then install the F# compiler etc from here http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=effc5bc4-c3df-4172-ad1c-bc62935861c5.
Then you'll have full IDE support for F# with intellisense, projects etc. Doesn't cost a penny and works like a charm!

Have a look at SharpDevelop - it has build-in F# support. The only thing required is F# compiler.
You can download a F# standalone version (to get the compiler) from here. It seems that it also integrates with Visual Studio Shell, which can be downloaded separately (follow the link at the download page). But I must confess I never tried this ...
Download from here
This CTP release includes the F# compiler and tools, as well as optional Visual Studio integration for F# development.
Meaning, the package includes the F# compiler, you don't need Visual Studio integration to compile a project.
