This video does an excellent job of describing the issue and how to resolve it using current best practices. [this video]

\_\_main__ .py is a main script and is named so and kept in project;s "root" directory because, as far as I understand, it must be so for pip installation using .toml file and to serve as an entry point. DIR_MODULES will contain various functions. There will be also DIR_GUI for gui related parts of program etc I followed this video from Real Python: [this video]
