The core components of the Mono platform that are required are the Mono Framework and Visual Studio for Mac. Please check out the What are Mono and Xamarin? guide for more information.

Step-by-Step

- Download the .mpack file in the list of Downloads on that release. For example, at the time of this writing, the Latest release download is entitled RhinoXamarinStudioAddIn_7.4.3.1.mpack.
- Launch Visual Studio for Mac if it not already open.
- Navigate to Visual Studio > Extensions……
- Click the Install from file… button in the lower left-hand corner.
- Navigate to the .mpack file you downloaded in step 2 above.
- Click Install. The plugin should install.
