# Description As the `range` command has an ambiguous name (does it construct a range type?, does it iterate a range like `seq`) replace it with a more descriptive verb of what it does: `slice` Closes #14130 # User-Facing Changes `range` is now deprecated and replaced in whole by `slice` with the same behavior. `range` will be removed in `0.103.0` # Tests + Formatting Tests have been updated to use `slice` # After submitting - [ ] prepare PR for `nu_scripts` (several usages of `range` to be fixed) - [ ] update documentation usages of `range` after release
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.
