# Description This PR adds a new subcommand `query webpage-info` to `plugin_nu_query`. The subcommand is a basic wrapper for the [`webpage`](https://crates.io/crates/webpage) crate. Usage: ``` http get https://phoronix.com | query webpage-info ``` and it returns a `Record` version of [`webpage::HTML`](https://docs.rs/webpage/latest/webpage/struct.HTML.html). The PR also takes a shot at bringing @lily-mara 's [nu-serde::to_value](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/3878/files) back to life, updating it for the latest version of nushell. That's not the main focus of the PR though - I just didn't want to have to implement a custom converter for `webpage::HTML` 😅. If it looks reasonable we could move it to `nu_protocol`(?) either in this PR or a future one (along with adding tests for it). # User-Facing Changes no breaking changes
Nushell core libraries and plugins
These sub-crates form both the foundation for Nu and a set of plugins which extend Nu with additional functionality.
Foundational libraries are split into two kinds of crates:
- Core crates - those crates that work together to build the Nushell language engine
- Support crates - a set of crates that support the engine with additional features like JSON support, ANSI support, and more.
Plugins are likewise also split into two types:
- Core plugins - plugins that provide part of the default experience of Nu, including access to the system properties, processes, and web-connectivity features.
- Extra plugins - these plugins run a wide range of different capabilities like working with different file types, charting, viewing binary data, and more.
