Description

[EntityFrameworkCore.Jet](https://github.com/bubibubi/EntityFrameworkCore.Jet) provider:

> The provider is .NET Standard 2.0 compatible, so it can be used with .NET (Core) 2.0+ and .NET Framework 4.6.1+. The major version corresponds to the major version of EF Core (i.e. EFCore.Jet 3.x is compatible with EF Core 3.y).

But [docs page](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/ef/efcore-and-ef6/#supported-platforms) states that:

> 3 The SQL Server Compact and Jet providers only work on .NET Framework (not on .NET Core).

Correct that please. Only SQL Server Compact provider works on .NET Framework for today.
