It's a massive topic. But to address the .exe file point, you would launch mono with the .exe as the parameter of the mono process. It's not the native OS that is 'supporting' the .exe, it is mono itself.

This is really no different to any .net implementation, in that the 'executable' runs in a sandbox, not directly interfacing with the OS.
