This helps us keep track of breaking changes. --> When users set the match algorithm to 'substring' by modifying `$env.config` to `$env.config.completions.algorithm = "substring"``), completions are done based on substring matches. This was previously possible by setting `positional` to be false in custom completers, but doing so now logs a warning as this feature is set to be deprecated and replaced by the new way of setting the matching algorithm to substring based.
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.
