The extension lists all the venvs created in the monorepo:

Other features:

1. Single-click venv activation via ⭐ icon:

   • Feature Description: The user can easily activate a virtual environment by clicking a star (⭐) icon associated with the environment, instead of navigating the VS Code command palette.
   • Purpose: This makes the process of selecting and activating a Python interpreter more user-friendly and quicker compared to using the command palette.

2. Installed package list with version status:

   • Feature Description: The extension displays a list of installed Python packages for the currently selected virtual environment, with warnings if new versions of packages are available.
   • Purpose: Helps users keep track of installed packages and ensures they can update outdated dependencies with ease.

3. Display all installed Python versions:

   • Feature Description: The extension lists all installed Python versions on the system.
   • Purpose: This assists users in reviewing and minimizing the number of different Python versions installed, which can streamline the setup and reduce CI workflow runtimes.
