# Description `cargo` somewhat recently gained the capability to store `lints` settings for the crate and workspace, that can override the defaults from `rustc` and `clippy` lints. This means we can enforce some lints without having to actively pass them to clippy via `cargo clippy -- -W ...`. So users just forking the repo have an easier time to follow similar requirements like our CI. ## Limitation An exception that remains is that those lints apply to both the primary code base and the tests. Thus we can't include e.g. `unwrap_used` without generating noise in the tests. Here the setup in the CI remains the most helpful. ## Included lints - Add `clippy::unchecked_duration_subtraction` (added by #12549) # User-Facing Changes Running `cargo clippy --workspace` should be closer to the CI. This has benefits for editor configured runs of clippy and saves you from having to use `toolkit` to be close to CI in more cases.
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.
