There was some Mono product/Mono for VS that integrates Mono into VS, but now there is none.

You should target .NET Core 5 in this case, as it is going to be the ultimate solution.

Mono does still provide some support for ASP.NET 4.* projects, but it would be difficult to assert compatibility as you need to deploy to Mono on Linux to verify. Even in those cases your project should target full .NET Framework just like what you do in the past. There is no Mono specific profile to target.
