All this is optional, so in Ubuntu 17.10 and earlier you're better off starting with the lightweight MonoDevelop IDE and see how it goes.
Finally you have a Microsoft epiphany moment when you realize that Visual Studio Code is a fancy code editor, not an IDE, and you need to buy the latest version of Windows and install Visual Studio in it.
Visual Studio Code doesn't warn you about this, so you need to install the software in order to find out if it works or not. Visual Studio Code treats every platform as if it's Windows, so sometimes the extra software you installed doesn't work. If you don't stop there you need to grant root access to some fancy development software to keep going. It's amazing how fast Visual Studio Code can chew up a gigabyte of disk space when it turns your Ubuntu into a Windows development environment. The terminal and MonoDevelop ( monodevelop) from the default Ubuntu repositories is maybe all you need, and Visual Studio Code doesn't live up to its full potential until you install lots of software to go with it. The dotnet-sdk snap package is all you need to install in order to start coding with C# in all currently supported versions of Ubuntu. Visual Studio Code assumes that you have Windows installed and you don't mind manually downloading and installing a lot of software that Microsoft recommends in order to get C# to work in Visual Studio Code. MonoDevelop was a good IDE for C# in Ubuntu when this question was asked, but it has been dropped from the default Ubuntu repositories. Arguably this question might have been opinion-based when it was asked in 2017, but it's not opinion-based anymore.
