Is there a way to develop C#/.NET on Android devices?

Question

Hi,

I want to run C# programs on my HTC Magic, I can find the mono app on the Android market but I have no clue on how to run C# using.

The code is just for fun, I don't want official support and such. After coding Visual Basic on windows mobile, I really want to code C# on Android, whether directly using some sort of editor if exists, or compiling it on a PC then installing it on Android.

If anyone knows a way to do such please let me know.

Thank you

Novell (MonoTouch) is working on bringing .Net to all devices, so you don't have to rewrite your code for each platform.

Android is in Beta. iPhone is available already.

Yep, the project is called MonoDroid and is being actively developed. However, it is not production-ready yet:

We are planning on launching MonoDroid later this summer
