Previously there was another ***plutus*** repository, now they made an update with another name ***plutus-apps***, the execution of the command must be updated so that it points to that reference of the ***plutus-apps*** project

nix --extra-experimental-features nix-command build -f default.nix plutus-apps.haskell.packages.plutus-core.components.library
