Ensuring Team-Wide IDE Extension Installation

2. Navigate to Plugins and select the Required Plugins tab.
3. Add "DCM" to the list of required plugins.

Ensuring Consistent Executable Versions Across the Team

To ensure that all team members use the same version of the DCM executable, configure the version constraints in your project's dcm_global.yaml file:

2. Set the version constraint:

   version: '>=1.15.0 <2.0.0'
