MSBuild can be successfully built on Windows, OS X 10.11, Ubuntu 14.04, and Ubuntu 16.04.

Mono maintains a fork of msbuild (for now) at https://github.com/mono/msbuild/. You can clone that and use the xplat-master branch or mono-2018-04 for the next release branch.

For Linux, you can install mono and msbuild from here.
