What are people's preferred tools for virtual environment management these days? I specifically care about being able to have hundreds of different project folders each with their own environment

I've been using pipenv for years despite not using Pipfiles - what else should I be considering in 2024?

I want a maximum of one command (equivalent to "pipenv shell") that I have to run in a directory in order to activate the corresponding environment

I've got a zsh hook when I cd that I think I hacked out of virtualenvwrapper which autoactivates a venv if there is a dir in ~/.virtualenvs/ with the same basename as the directory I am changing into.

I have a shell alias called `venv` that makes virtualenvs in ~/.virtualenvs/ directory based on the basename of the current dir (and runs pip -r) to setup a new project.

I also use direnv for things, but the stuff above predates that.
