Let me just say that I think a bunch of things will be solved by:
- check for
python
and/orconda
at first launch and suggesting to installminiforge
(esp. on Windows) - improving the “Choose Python” command to detect environments (and as you say, offer to create a new one)
- improving the “Download Plugins” code to check for
requirements.txt
and/or similar and install dependencies
Those are all part of the 1.99 roadmap … maybe later this week or next? Certainly before the end of the calendar year.
In the meantime, suggestions / help wanted.
