I think mise gets a lot right. I use it for environment variables, Python virtualenv creation and activation, and task scripts.

I've been a software developer for over twenty years and am usually reluctant to use new tools. But mise has been a fantastic addition to my dev workflow.

I have two problems with Mise: There isn't a page with the most common commands I might want to run, and whenever I try it, some Python imports mysteriously fail. Then I disable it, and everything is fine again.

I might be motivated to persevere if I only had one of the above problems, but with both of them together, it's too much of a hassle.

there's a list with common commands you might want to run: https://mise.jdx.dev/walkthrough.html

if you post an issue/discussion about the python thing I'd love to investigate it a bit

Oh, is that the page that resulted from the issue I opened? It looks good, thanks!

I'll open an issue for the Python thing, I can reproduce it reliably.

it's very possible, I don't recall when/why I added it

If you want to post a discussion on the mise GH repo, I'd be happy to help. Feel free to @ me in that discussion so I don't miss it.

I posted an issue about the documentation and I see that it was added, so thanks! If you want, I can post more issues of the type "as a new user of mise, I expect to be able to do _______ but I can't see how in the docs". I'll also post about my Python issue when I reproduce it next.
