Getting Monogame to function on VS Code

I have tried using this guide:

https://www.reddit.com/r/monogame/comments/eej4sp/tutorial_dotnet_core_30_31_with_monogame/

Nothing on the guide seems to work. I would do this in Visual Studio 2019, however, I do not have room to install Visual Studio. I have tried getting Visual Studio to fully install on my :d/ drive which has more than enough space but it still wants to put things onto my :c\ drive.

Is it even worth trying to get Monogame to work on VS code? I have been using love2D and I want to use a language like C# instead of lua hence why I am going to try out Monogame. I saw I could also do this on Rider but I do not have the money to buy Rider sadly.

If anyone has any advice that would be great. Thank you in advance.
