Should I Use Fluent Validation?

Advantages of using Fluent Validations
Speed of development- It is easy to work with. Decoupling validation rules and models- Fluent Validation allows you to separate validation rules from your model and helps you structure the rules so that they are nice and readable.

How does fluent validation work?

FluentValidation is a server-side framework, and does not provide any client-side validation directly. However, it can provide metadata which, when applied to the generated HTML elements, can be used by a client-side framework such as jQuery Validate, in the same way that ASP. NET's default validation attributes work.

How do you implement FluentValidation?

Fluent validations uses lamba expressions to build validation rules. For small systems, I would recommend just using Data Annotations, because they're so easy to set up. For larger, more complex systems, I would recommend separating the validation concern using validator objects with Fluent Validation.
