# Description follow up to #8529 and #8914 this works very similarly to record annotations, only difference being that ```sh table<name: string> ^^^^ ^^^^^^ | | | represents the type of the items in that column | represents the column name ``` more info on the syntax can be found [here](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/8914#issue-1672113520) # User-Facing Changes **[BREAKING CHANGE]** this change adds a field to `SyntaxShape::Table` so any plugins that used it will have to update and include the field. though if you are unsure of the type the table expects, `SyntaxShape::Table(vec![])` will suffice
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.
