I was looking for a way to compile a .sln file on Debian, being that online resources are highly limited and/or outdated.
I've already tried XBuild and installing VS on Wine but nothing was successful.
Wine is the issue. It has libraries that don't work half of the time. Why install a *nix OS just to install proprietary software? That kind of defeats the entire purpose of using it. The are other IDEs that are free and work completely on Linux without the use of sketchy warez.
Nevertheless, the answer to your question is that you can open the file in the Visual Studio program where it was created as a settings file for a project. It's a file only usable with that program. You can, however use any other reasonably safe IDE or even notepad, to open and read the contents of it.
