Cannot find viewModel in scope

I'm working on a SwiftUI app and encountered an error: Cannot find 'UserViewModel' in scope when trying to use my UserViewModel in HomeScreen`(line of code 11). I've ensured that the UserViewModel class is defined, and I'm importing SwiftUI in both files.

Here's the setup: UserViewModel.swift

import SwiftUI

class UserViewModel: ObservableObject {
    @Published var users: [User] = []
    @Published var errorMessage: String?
    
    func fetchUsers(completion: @escaping () -> Void = {}) {
        UserService.shared.fetchUsers { result in
            DispatchQueue.main.async {
                switch result {
                case .success(let users):
                    self.users = users.sorted { $0.id < $1.id }
                    completion()
                case .failure(let error):
                    self.errorMessage = error.localizedDescription
                }
            }
        }
    }
    
    func addUser(user: User) {
        if !users.contains(where: { $0.id == user.id }) {
            users.append(user)
        }
    }
}

HomeScreen.swift

import SwiftUI

struct HomeScreen: View {
    var currentUser: User
    
    @StateObject private var viewModel = UserViewModel()
    @State private var selectedUser: User?
    @State private var showAlert = false
    @State private var navigateToGameScreen = false
    
    var body: some View {
        NavigationView {
            VStack {
                HStack {
                    Spacer()
                    Text("Welcome, \(currentUser.firstName) \(currentUser.lastName)")
                        .padding()
                }
                
                VStack {
                    Text("Users")
                        .font(.largeTitle)
                        .fontWeight(.bold)
                        .padding(.bottom, 10)
                    
                    if let errorMessage = viewModel.errorMessage {
                        Text(errorMessage)
                            .foregroundColor(.red)
                            .padding()
                    } else {
                        List(viewModel.users) { user in
                            HStack {
                                Text("\(user.firstName) \(user.lastName)")
                                Spacer()
                                if currentUser.id != user.id {
                                    Button(action: {
                                        selectedUser = user
                                        showAlert = true
                                    }) {
                                        Text("Play")
                                            .foregroundColor(.blue)
                                    }
                                } else {
                                    Text("You")
                                        .foregroundColor(.gray)
                                }
                            }
                        }
                    }
                }
                .padding()
                .navigationTitle("")
                .navigationBarHidden(true)
            }
            .onAppear {
                viewModel.fetchUsers {
                    viewModel.addUser(user: currentUser)
                }
            }
            .alert(isPresented: $showAlert) {
                Alert(
                    title: Text("Play Game"),
                    message: Text("Do you want to play guess name with \(selectedUser?.username ?? "")?"),
                    primaryButton: .default(Text("Yay!"), action: {
                        navigateToGameScreen = true
                    }),
                    secondaryButton: .cancel(Text("Naah"))
                )
            }
            .background(
                NavigationLink(destination: GameScreen(opponentUsername: selectedUser?.username ?? "", loggedInUser: currentUser), isActive: $navigateToGameScreen) {
                    EmptyView()
                }
                .hidden()
            )
        }
        .navigationBarBackButtonHidden(true) // Hide back button
    }
}

struct HomeScreen_Previews: PreviewProvider {
    static var previews: some View {
        HomeScreen(currentUser: User(id: 1, firstName: "John", lastName: "Doe", age: 30, username: "johndoe", email: "[email protected]"))
    }
}

What I've Tried Import Statements: Verified that both files have import SwiftUI.

File Locations: Ensured that both files are included in the same target and are located within the same group in Xcode.

Build and Clean: Tried cleaning the project and rebuilding it.

Reimport: Tried adding import Foundation in UserViewModel.swift.

Problem Despite these checks, Xcode still shows Cannot find 'UserViewModel' in scope when trying to instantiate UserViewModel in HomeScreen.
