> The meaning of "NET" and "DotNET" in the `PlatformAttribute` have been updated in NUnit 5 to better align with Microsoft's current terminology. These identifiers could previously be used to allow tests to run only on .NET Framework. Modern .NET releases such as .NET 8, 9, or 10 are now generally known as just ".NET" and so "NET" and "DotNET" will now be used to target modern .NET platforms rather than .NET Framework. New `NETFramework` and `DotNETFramework` identifiers have also been added to better differentiate. Existing usages of "NET" or "DotNET" which are intended to target to .NET Framework will need to be updated to either "NETFramework" or "DotNETFramework".

> Please see the below compatibility table for more info. `netfx` refers to .NET Framework and `modern .NET` refers to .NET Core and newer releases.
