Thank you for your reply, I truly appreciate your help.
When I click on "Create a .venv" (step 9), my Codespace does not show an option to select an existing virtual environment. This might just be an issue on my end, so I'll try it on a fresh Codespace to see if that resolves the problem.

PS: I tried it on a fresh Codespace, but it still did not show the existing .venv option.
