# Description Should fix #14872. ## Before The vendor autoload code in #13382 used `dirs::data_dir()` (from the `dirs` crate), leading to a different behavior when `XDG_DATA_HOME` is set on each platform. * On Linux, the `dirs` crate automatically uses `XDG_DATA_HOME` for `dirs::data_dir()`, so everything worked as expected. * On macOS, `dirs` doesn't use the XDG spec, but the vendor autoload code from #13382 specifically added `XDG_DATA_HOME`. However, even if `XDG_DATA_HOME` was set, vendor autoloads would still use the `dirs` version *as well*. * On Windows, `XDG_DATA_HOME` was ignored completely by vendor autoloads, even though `$nu.data-dirs` was respecting it. ## After This PR uses `nu::data_dirs()` on all platforms. `nu::data_dirs()` respects `XDG_DATA_HOME` (if set) on all platforms. # User-Facing Changes Might be a breaking change if someone was depending on the old behavior, but the doc already specified the behavior in this PR.
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.
