Versions:
GTK# for .NET is a development toolkit published by the Mono Project that enables .NET developers to build and run Gtk#-based applications on the .NET Framework. The installer provides all of the components needed to develop and execute these applications, delivering the same set of libraries that are used to build Unix applications on Mono. This makes it a practical solution for developers who want to create cross-platform graphical user interfaces while working within the familiar .NET ecosystem, since applications written with GTK# can be developed on Windows with the .NET Framework and subsequently run on Unix-based systems through Mono. The software falls into the developer tools and software development kit category, specifically addressing GUI framework and binding development for desktop applications. Its primary purpose is to bridge the GTK widget toolkit with the .NET runtime, giving programmers access to a mature, native widget set for constructing windows, dialogs, controls, and other interface elements. Typical use cases include building cross-platform desktop applications with a shared codebase, porting existing Mono or Linux applications to the .NET Framework, and learning GTK-based interface development from a C# or other .NET language environment. Because the installer bundles the complete set of required libraries, it removes the need for developers to assemble individual dependencies manually, simplifying both the development setup and the runtime deployment of GTK# applications on end-user machines. The current and only available version of GTK# for .NET is 2.12.45, which corresponds to the 2.12 release series of the toolkit. As only a single version is offered, users installing this package will receive version 2.12.45, which contains the full collection of GTK# assemblies and supporting files necessary for compiling and executing applications that rely on the GTK# bindings.
