Cannot use import maps

Hi there, I'm trying to make a project root alias @ so I don't have to suffer through relative path import hell (../../../../file.ts) However, when I specify "@/": "./" in the imports section of deno.json, I get an error from VSCode stating this:

The import specifier can be remapped to "@/absolutePath/file.ts" which will resolve it via the active import map.

The import specifier can be remapped to "@/absolutePath/file.ts" which will resolve it via the active import map.

Therefore, I either have to use absolute imports for every file or use only relative imports. I want to be able to use both. Is converting the project root to @/ not possible without some sort of src directory? Thanks in advance.
