 # Copilot Instructions
 
 ## Project Guidelines
-- All new byte[xx] calls should use using var data = ArrayPool<byte>.Shared.Lease(xx); instead of directly allocating byte arrays
+- When running tests in this workspace, do not run tests for the net48 target framework.
+- When changing System.Text.Json code in this workspace, verify API availability for netstandard2.0 and netstandard2.1 instead of assuming newer APIs exist.

+# Multi .NET Framework Targeting

+## Instructions
+- The main project "WireMock.Net.Minimal" targets `netstandard2.0` and `net8.0`. Ensure that any new code or dependencies are compatible with these frameworks.

+## Instructions
+- When a new ByteArray is needed, do not use `var data = new byte[bufferSize];`. Always use `var data = ArrayPool<byte>.Shared.Lease(bufferSize);`.
