my test python flask app is returning this "partially initialized module 'project' has no attribute 'db' (most likely due to a circular import)"

Question

this is my project directory structure shown in the images with the links below, from my own understanding l am creating a db object in the project directory's init.py file, that object is being imported by models.py please help me understand the nature of the circular import problem and how l can fix it
