NETSDK1013: The TargetFramework value was not recognized
This article applies to: ✔️ .NET Core 3.1.100 SDK and later versions
The SDK tries to parse the values provided in the project file for <TargetFramework> or <TargetFrameworks> into a well known value. If the value is not recognized, the TargetFrameworkIdentifier or TargetFrameworkVersion value might be set to an empty string or Unsupported.
To resolve this, check the spelling of your TargetFramework value from the list of supported frameworks.
You can also set the TargetFrameworkIdentifier and TargetFrameworkVersion properties directly in your project file.
<PropertyGroup Condition="'$(TargetFrameworkIdentifier)' == ''">
<TargetFrameworkIdentifier>.NETCoreApp</TargetFrameworkIdentifier>
<TargetFrameworkVersion>8.0</TargetFrameworkVersion>
</PropertyGroup>
