Asdf does provide extras, but the plugin-specific code is tiny: https://github.com/asdf-community/asdf-python/blob/master/bi...

    I use asdf and its Python plugin [1] to install Python interpreter versions.

    For managing virtual environments on my preferred shell (Fish), I use (and maintain) VirtualFish [2].

    For managing project dependencies, I activate environments via VirtualFish and then use Poetry [3] to update the dependencies within the environments.
