.NET is a big advantage of F#. Like with Scala and JVM, it gives you access to a mainstream ecosystem of libraries. A lack of libraries is usually what makes niche languages unsuitable for production, but F# handily side-steps this. Arguably, F# has a larger ecosystem than C#, since it can also consume JS libraries using Fable! Mono is no longer required to get started with F#. All you need now is .NET Core.
