SonarLint Eclipse

My IDE is Spring Tool Suite (STS), its version is 4.3.0.RELEASE and I am using Java version 8
Wanted to know, how to install SonarLint plugin in IDE, in this case

From eclipse marketplace, I installed SonarLint plugin but its not working. And there on description, it shows that it works for Java 11 and above

So, is there some alternative like lower version of SonarLint or something else, by which I can successfully install it. While still remaining on Java 8 and STS.

Hey there.

Ideally, you should be able to start Eclipse with Java 11 – while still being able to work on Java 8 projects.
