Cannot import files from a folder

Question

I have the following file structure:

dashboard
└── streamlit_app.py
    └── site
        ├── __init__.py
        └── app.py

# streamlit_app.py
from site.app import start

if __name__ == '__main__':
  start()

# app.py
import streamlit as st
import database as db

def start():
    st.set_page_config(
        page_title='henos',
        page_icon='https://imgur.com/a/urHOoK3',
        initial_sidebar_state='collapsed',
    )

    st.text('This website is under development, please wait until complete')

but when i run streamlit_app.py i get this error:

any help would be great

it seems that the imported site is from python standard library, but not the package. You can print site.__file__ to check this. — Yang Yushi

Python has a module called 'site' and it's automatically imported during initialization.

Please check this link out to know more.

site package in python

Solution for your issue

Please try to change the package name you made from 'site' to something else.
