When I compile I get the following error:
I imported everything correctly with app.module.ts I don’t know why I’m getting this?

Well the problem lies in how you generated your Angular project, and how you're trying to use it.
Your project was generated using Angular's standalone components and standalone bootstraping which DOES NOT uses an NgModule to boostrap the application :
Here's you main.ts :
import { bootstrapApplication } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { appConfig } from './app/app.config';
import { AppComponent } from './app/app.component';
bootstrapApplication(AppComponent, appConfig)
.catch((err) => console.error(err));
The bootstrapApplication
function is used to create an Angular app using a component, the AppComponent
is used to bootstrap the application and your AppModule
is entirely ignored, rendering the imports you made inside it useless.
To fix this problem you can either convert the rest of your application to standalone component and get rid of your app.module, or bootstrap the application using the bootstrapModule
function.
Here's what you can replace your main.ts
with :
import { platformBrowserDynamic } from '@angular/platform-browser-dynamic';
import { AppModule } from './app/app.module';
platformBrowserDynamic().bootstrapModule(AppModule)
.catch(err => console.error(err));
This should fix the import errors.
