# Description The `(version).build_os` variable inherits from `shadow_rs` `BUILD_OS` which points to the OS on which the binary was built but does not reflect the target if it was cross-compiled. We cross-compile several of the targets for our binary releases. Thus the info in the banner was misleading. # User-Facing Changes By changing to `build_target` the target triple is shown instead. This is slightly more verbose but should also allow disambiguation between the `musl` and `glibc` builds.  # Tests + Formatting (-)
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.
