I've just installed FluentValidation 11.5.1 for my project which uses .NET 4.5 but I can't install FluentValidation.AspNetCore due to incompatibility with my .NET version. After doing some research I am finding conflicting information on which version of FluentValidation works with 4.5 - some articles mentioned 3.0.0 others 5.0.0, and the documentation on the FluentValidation website only go to the 8.0.0 upgrade. Can I use FluentValidation 11.5.1 without FluentValidation.AspNetCore?
According to Fluent Validation docs, v11 only supports .NET Core 3.1+ and .NET Standard 2.0, which is not compatible with .NET Framework 4.5.
Checking nuget and GitHub, we can see the .NET Framework 4.5 support was dropped in version 9, so the latest you can use is version 8.6.3.
