You can get a version that is compatible with Debian by using this repo.

https://www.mono-project.com/download/stable/

sudo apt install apt-transport-https dirmngr gnupg ca-certificates
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys
3FA7E0328081BFF6A14DA29AA6A19B38D3D831EF
echo "deb https://download.mono-project.com/repo/debian stable-buster
main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mono-official-stable.list
sudo apt update
sudo apt install mono-devel

If you already have some Debian distribution based package then it would
be recommended to remove them.

Later on, if you need some package not found in the Mono distribution
but you can find in Debian then you can compile them yourself, linked
against Mono-project version by doing something similar to :

apt-get source packagename
cd packagename-x.y
debuild

If you need more info on compiling some specific package, let me know.

PS: There may be a Mono mailing list where you could find more info.
