This moves to predominantly supporting only lazy dataframes for most operations. It removes a lot of the type conversion between lazy and eager dataframes based on what was inputted into the command. For the most part the changes will mean: * You will need to run `polars collect` after performing operations * The into-lazy command has been removed as it is redundant. * When opening files a lazy frame will be outputted by default if the reader supports lazy frames A list of individual command changes can be found [here](https://hackmd.io/@nucore/Bk-3V-hW0) --------- Co-authored-by: Ian Manske <ian.manske@pm.me>
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.
