Is there a version of Monodevelop that runs on Windows? If so where can I get it?
Monodevelop is a cross-platform IDE whereas Visual Studio can be considered as a suite having all the tools required for the development, refactoring, testing, alignment, the styling of the code.
Visual Studio for Mac is basically the same as MonoDevelop. When Xamarin took over Mono development, they released a branded version of MonoDevelop as Xamarin Studio. In 2016 they were bought by Microsoft and they rebranded Xamarin Studio as Visual Studio for Mac.
MonoDevelop officially supports Windows since 2.2. You can check the what's new in Monodevelop 2.2 or download the last release.
Windows Support
Windows now Officially Supported
Windows is now an officially supported platform for running MonoDevelop. Many Windows specific issues have been fixed, and some add-ins such as debugging and subversion support have been written specifically for Windows.
Windows Installer
We are releasing a new Windows Installer which includes almost all you need to run MonoDevelop. The only external dependency is gtk#, which is provided in a separate installer.
