Describe the feature you'd like

NOTE: This feature request is a duplicate of the issue in the first comment of this thread. I opened it without checking, and therefore apologize beforehand. The mentioned issue is in the Backlog for now, with no apparent date to be implemented. This issue will stay open, since I'm not sure if you guys track opened issues and manually closing it could break something. Thank you!


Hello there!

It's me once again. I'd like to know if you guys have any plans on implementing a NuGet explorer like VS. I know extensions exist, but would be nice having something visual to explore. The command bar is nice but you have to know the NuGet Package name beforehand....

Either way, I'm wishing you all a lovely week!

Best regards,
Fallbork
