[git](/community/contributing/source-code-repository/) now includes a Visual Studio .NET 2005 solution **mono.sln** in the [mono/msvc directory](https://github.com/mono/mono/tree/master/msvc), and some projects files to build most of the unmanaged parts in Mono.

Starting with Mono from git revision SVN/109671 (or version 2.2+) it is now possible to compile Mono for Windows on your Linux machine. To do it you will need to provide a [MinGW](http://mingw.org/) environment for your Linux distribution and several compile and runtime dependencies for Mono. Distribution-specific instructions follow below. Once you have your MinGW environment set up, go to your Mono source directory and type (make sure that your directory has NO files from previous compilations):

### Building with Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL)

Normally you should be able to just use the [Linux instructions](/docs/compiling-mono/linux/). Currently your `autogen`/`configure` invocations must include `--with-csc=mcs`, as building with Roslyn triggers as severe (system-crashing) [known issue](https://github.com/Microsoft/WSL/issues/2697).
