Imports dont work in python

Hi, Im new here and I need help with understanding how imports works with python.
Im working with VS Code and used to working with JavaScript and with NPM.

I followed this Video and havent ran anything yet, but im getting errors on my imports, for example:
these imports
from Autodesk.Revit.DB import *
from pyrevit import forms, revit, script
gets these errors respectively:
Import "Autodesk.Revit.DB" could not be resolvedPylance[reportMissingImports]
Import "pyrevit" could not be resolvedPylance[reportMissingImports]

Thank you

@IdoRevit ,

import os, sys, datetime         
from Autodesk.Revit.DB import *  
from Autodesk.Revit.UI import *  
from Autodesk.Revit.DB.Architecture import *

# pyRevit
from pyrevit import forms, revit, script    

# .NET Imports
import clr
clr.AddReference('System') 
from System.Collections.Generic import List
# List_example = List[ElementId]()

i use this as a boiler blade

That VScode and plan e do not resolve the imports by default is normal. You need to setup the stubs for Revit API and pyrevit API to fix that. But this is not a real issue as your script runs within the Revit and pyrevit environment and not directly from VScode.
The place error can be ignored.

Thank you. it seems I accidentally skipped the video that teaches about the stubs, and after going through it I stop getting these errors.
I know that the code only runs inside Revit, but in general ignoring errors in code is a bad habit…

Technically it is not an error in the code, just vscode not knowing about the existence of such imports.
So ignoring is fine ;p
