# Fix PyLint error, unable to import frappe in VS Code

[Error unable to import frappe in VScode](https://discuss.erpnext.com/t/error-unable-to-import-frappe-in-vscode/50031)

Assuming that your project root directory is inside `/apps/` and that's also where frappe app is located. 
create a `.env` file in your project root directory and then add 

```
PYTHONPATH=../frappe # your unresolved module path
```

Open your VS Code settings.json and add this line. This assumes that the open folder in vs code is your app.
```
"python.envFile": "${workspaceFolder}/.env"
```


If you don't want to push your .env to Github open `.gitignore` in the project root folder and add `.env` on a new line.
