# Description
This PR creates a `CITATION.cff` file.
# User-Facing Changes
Users will now be able to properly cite `nushell` when used e.g. in
scientific work. The `CITATION.cff` file also enables users to get the
citation withe the Github integration, see
[documentation](https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/managing-your-repositorys-settings-and-features/customizing-your-repository/about-citation-files).
More information about the `.cff` standard

# After Submitting
Do you want it documented in the docs somewhere? If so, where exactly?
Happy to make a PR there.
One feature that could well be implemented later on is automatic updates
to the CITATION file with a Github Action (this is outside of my comfort
zone, so I'll leave that for a separate PR should anyone want to
implement it). Ideally, the `CITATION.cff` file points to the latest
release , and could do so with the following fields:
