Nushell

Render Nushell data files (.nuon) and syntax-highlight Nushell scripts (.nu) using the local Nushell installation.

Features

• .nuon file viewer -- open .nuon files directly in Obsidian and see them rendered as colored Nushell tables with nested records, lists, and type-based coloring
• .nu file viewer -- open .nu scripts with syntax highlighting powered by Nushell's own nu-highlight
• nuon code blocks -- embed Nushell data inline in your notes
• nu code blocks -- embed syntax-highlighted Nushell scripts in your notes
• Settings panel -- configure date/time format (with presets), filesize units, and boolean/datetime/filesize colors
• Graceful fallback -- if Nushell is not installed, files are displayed as raw text with a warning

Code block examples

```nuon
[[name, age, city]; [Alice, 30, Brussels], [Bob, 25, Ghent]]
```

```nu
def greet [name: string] {
    print $"Hello, ($name)!"
}
```
