# Description Previously `group-by` returned a record containing each group as a column. This data layout is hard to work with for some tasks because you have to further manipulate the result to do things like determine the number of items in each group, or the number of groups. `transpose` will turn the record returned by `group-by` into a table, but this is expensive when `group-by` is run on a large input. In a discussion with @fdncred [several workarounds](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/discussions/10462) to common tasks were discussed, but they seem unsatisfying in general. Now when `group-by --to-table` is used a table is returned with the columns "groups" and "items" making it easier to do things like count the number of groups (`| length`) or count the number of items in each group (`| each {|g| $g.items | length`) # User-Facing Changes * `group-by` returns a `table` with "group" and "items" columns instead of a `record` with one column per group name # Tests + Formatting Tests for `group-by` were updated # After Submitting * No breaking changes were made. The new `--to-table` switch should be added automatically to the [`group-by` documentation](https://www.nushell.sh/commands/docs/group-by.html) |

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.
