Fixes #12280. # Description This removes the dependency on the `difference` crate, which is unmaintained, for `nu-plugin-test-support`. The `similar` crate (Apache-2.0) is used instead, which is a bit larger and more complex, but still suitable for a dev dep for tests. Also switched to use `crossterm` for colors, since `similar` doesn't come with any terminal pretty printing functionality. # User-Facing Changes None - output should be identical. # Tests + Formatting - 🟢 `toolkit fmt` - 🟢 `toolkit clippy` - 🟢 `toolkit test` - 🟢 `toolkit test stdlib`
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.
