# Description This PR adds a new `echo` command to the `nu_plugin_example` plugin that simply [streams all of its input to its output](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/12754/files#diff-de9fcf086b8c373039dadcc2bcb664c6014c0b2af8568eab68c0b6666ac5ccceR47). ``` : "hi" | example echo hi ``` The motivation for adding it is to have a convenient command to exercise interactivity on slow pipelines. I'll follow up on that front with [another PR](https://github.com/cablehead/nushell/pull/1/files) # Tests + Formatting https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/12754/files#diff-de9fcf086b8c373039dadcc2bcb664c6014c0b2af8568eab68c0b6666ac5ccceR51-R55
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.
