title: Compiling a single F# program on a mac
body: <p>So Im starting to use F# as a language. Currently Im either using Visual studio for <strong>mac</strong> to compile my code or just vscode (and then running MSbuild on the <code>.fsproj</code> file). However I find both these solutions <strong>very</strong> inconvenient at times, as I dont want to make projects <em>every time i want to try out F# code</em>. Consider c# or C++ or even C. You don't have to make a new project or anything like that, you just type in "gcc ". Im running on a mac and I do have <code>dotnet</code> and <code>mono</code> installed. Its definitely possible to compile F# to an exe and run it, but how do I do it for only one file? I tried fcs, but Bash doesn't recognize it as a command. </p>
