Adoption guide
Teams using PostgreSQL features such as JSONB, arrays or advanced indexing patterns.
Why it appears in the guide: EF Core provider for PostgreSQL with strong support for PostgreSQL-specific capabilities. Trade-off: Provider-specific behavior and SQL translation should be validated when porting from SQL Server-centric models.
This version is marked prerelease. Validate its API and upgrade path before production use.

How to read this guidance
Sources: published NuGet v3 registry metadata and explicit NuBrowse editorial guides. Refresh: package metadata is refreshed from NuGet when the page loads. Limit: this is not a security, legal or compatibility guarantee; validate the selected version in your project.
