# Description Adds a user-level (non-vendor) autoload directory: ``` ($nu.default-config-dir)/autoload ``` Currently this is the only directory. We can consider adding others if needed. Related: As a separate PR, I'm going to try to restore the ability to set `$env.NU_AUTOLOAD_DIRS` during startup. # User-Facing Changes Files in `$nu.default-config-dir/autoload` will be autoload at startup. These files will be loaded after any vendor autoloads, so that a user can override the vendor settings. # Tests + Formatting - 🟢 `toolkit fmt` - 🟢 `toolkit clippy` - 🟢 `toolkit test` - 🟢 `toolkit test stdlib` # After Submitting TODO; add a `$nu.user-autoload-dirs` constant.

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.
