+# This Week in Nushell #353
+
+Published Friday, 2026-05-29, including PRs merged Friday, 2026-05-22 through Thursday, 2026-05-28.
+
+An as-expected slower-than-usual week due to 0.113's release (Yay!). That said, your future reedline
+prompts may be slightly less boxy, and definitely more brackety, in the future with @speicherwerk's `>` change
+in Reedline #1043.
+
+And a random shout-out to @Kissaki - Thank you for your continued improvements to Nushell and our Documentation!
+
+And as always, thank you to all our Nushell contributors, whether first-timers or Nushell greybeards, young or old,
+human or dependabot.
