I noted from a previous answer (to "Extracting nuget packages correctly") that Monaco is a code editor only for Azure Websites and doesn't have the .NET Web Application project capabilities of desktop VS [i.e., it can't WebDeploy to VM's or Cloud
Services (yet?)].
I have two questions about where Monaco is and is going in it's development:
(1) Is there someplace on the Web now that we can see the actual differences between the features of desktop VS (Express for example) and Monaco?
(2) Have you published a roadmap for Monaco that we can inspect (or a blog or video of a team member discussing where the project is going)? ... I can only assume that you eventually want Monaco to be a fully featured SaaS VS IDE (or least in the short-term
to be able to publish to VM's and Cloud Services even if it doesn't have all the bells and whistles of desktop VS). When do you think you'll have a version that can manage (and WebDeploy) .NET projects?
