# Description Currently, `PluginSignature` does not appear on [`docs.rs`](https://docs.rs/nu-protocol/latest/nu_protocol/index.html), since it is behind the `plugin` feature which is not enabled by default. This PR adds [metadata](https://docs.rs/about/metadata) to the Cargo.toml to get `docs.rs` to build docs with all features enabled.
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.
