Hey, thanks for the report. This looks like a Python interpreter or path issue. To set the correct working directory, please share:

  • Project structure: how are your local packages organized? (folder tree)
  • The exact import error: what’s the full error message when you run?
  • Python interpreter: have you selected one? Try:
  • Press Cmd+Shift+P
  • Search “Python: Select Interpreter”
  • Choose your interpreter or virtual environment

For a workspace-level setup, create or edit .vscode/settings.json in your project root:

{
  "python.autoComplete.extraPaths": ["./src", "./your_package_folder"],
  "terminal.integrated.cwd": "${workspaceFolder}"
}

Also, please share a screenshot of the terminal output when you run the project. That’ll help pinpoint the issue.
