What I wish I knew when learning F#

I wouldn't do this, as this is the mono bundle of fsharp. The blessed/supported way to go now is to install the dotnet-sdk packages[1] and then use `dotnet fsi` for interactive work, and `dotnet build/run/etc` for project-based work in F#.

I'll give it a shot, but TBH, I like the no-brainer apt-get way.

Goal is not to spend a couple of hours fighting to install the stack, but to use the time learning about the language.

apt-get gives me that.

MSFT-specific stack install tool don't really sound like a no-brainer, but I'll look anyways.

As a fellow linux user, my package manager does the job for both the runtime and the sdk. It should work for yours too.
