The script in `executablePath` did not work, but I found another solution that seems to work well. Simply add this line in `.vscode/setting.json`:

```json
  "julia.additionalArgs": [  
      "-e pushfirst!(LOAD_PATH, pwd())"
  ],

```

With this, a fresh REPL session in VS Code give:

```julia-repl
shell> ls
Aardvark env

julia> using Aardvark

julia> 

```
