### Environment Management

Here, you can create, delete, and switch between environments, as well as install and uninstall packages within the selected environment.

The "Python Projects" fold shows you all of the projects that are currently in your workspace and their selected environments. From this view you can add more files or folders as projects, select a new environment for your project, and manage your selected environments.
