NuGet Product(s) Involved

Visual Studio Package Management UI

The Elevator Pitch

There is a lot of confusion when searching for packages whose native and managed implementations have the same name.
For example, if I search for "Libjpeg-Turbo", I find the C++ packages containing the native implementations and the .NET packages containing the wrappers.

Additional Context and Details

In certain cases, it is even possible to add a C++ package in a .NET project.

I believe it would be a better developer experience if the VS UI (and probably nuget.org as well) could provide a better visualization of the type of package as well as the possibility to filter out the undesired ones.

Thanks for reaching out. I believe this is a duplicate of the proposal: #5725. Please consider upvoting that feature proposal.
