Extendable version manager for multiple programming language runtimes and tools.
Why you might care
Replaces language-specific version managers (rbenv, nvm, pyenv) with a single unified tool using plugins. Stores version declarations in `.tool-versions` files per project, making your development environment reproducible across machines. Particularly useful in polyglot projects where you need to juggle multiple language versions.
