[FIXED] How to use python virtual environments in VS Code jupyter notebooks integration?

Issue

I have created a virtual environment with venv as follows from VS Code integrated terminal:

python3 -m venv <name>

after cd in the directory, I activated it by doing source <name>/bin/activate

How can I make it available for the kernel of my VS Code integration of jupyter notebook? I only see the default python installations as possible kernels i.e. usr/bin/python3

Also, let's say I would like to then revert the process and remove that kernel - how can I do it?

Solution

As mentioned by Molly Wang below, the kernel does not appear in the list of Python environments and you should upvote this issue in Github. As a workaround, you could open the python interpreter menu in VS Code (crtl+p) and type "Python interpreter" and then navigate to your venv python (choose the right version within the /bin folder in your venv)
