This module includes potential candidate commands (and other definitions) for inclusion in the Standard Library (std) that is built in to Nushell. As a general guideline, candidates should:

Be general purpose features that will be useful to a number of users
Include doc comments for definitions and parameters that can be used with help <command>
Include tests
Since doc comments are fairly limited, additional documentation can be included in a GitHub discussion. This documentation can then be moved to the main website when the feature is promoted to std. See this example for some table helpers.

Showcase and Discussion

While primary feedback should take place in the PR, we have also established a Drawing Board Discord channel which can be used for several purposes:

Ideation before a PR is submitted
Raise awareness of the feature
Short-term questions and discussion

Note: The Drawing Board is not just for std-rfc. Please tag your topic with std-library if it is about a Standard Library idea.

Promotion Evaluation

In general, new std-rfc features will be evaluated after they have been trialed for a sufficient period, which may vary depending on the feature. After that period, the feature may be:

Promoted to std
Removed from std-rfc
Or changes may be requested and then reevaluated later
