I was really hoping Visual Studio 2017 for Mac would support this, but it looks like it doesnt have full extension support yet.

Unfortunately VS for Mac currently doesn't support Python or R (the two languages our team supports). However, if you are interested, please file the request on uservocie - that really helps us convince mgmt.

Meanwhile, VS Code has pretty decent Python support which can be used on Windows, MacOS and Linux:

Visual Studio for the Mac is a re-branding of Xamarin Studio, so it doesn't actually share any code with Visual Studio for Windows. I doubt that VS Windows plugins will ever work with it.
