VS Code is not sugging imports from inside the node_modules

Question

I am experiencing issues when using "V.S. Code". All of my settings were deleted (or that is the way it seems). I reinstalled V.S. Code, but now I cannot get auto imports to work.

For example:

When I write useEffect, I expect VS Code to suggest an import for it from the node modules, however, its not suggesting it.

        How can this issue be fixed?

Answer 1

Okay, I found the answer. The problem was that by default the extension "TypeScript and JavaScript Language Features" was disabled. After enabling now everything work

Answer 2

You might need to add this line to your VS Code "settings.json" file:

{
  "typescript.tsdk": "./node_modules/typescript/lib"
}
