ESLint Definition for rule 'import/extensions' was not found

Question

I'm getting the following two errors on all TypeScript files using ESLint in VS Code:

Definition for rule 'import/extensions' was not found.eslint(import/extensions)
Definition for rule 'import/no-extraneous-dependencies' was not found.eslint(import/no-extraneous-dependencies)

Note on possible duplicates

There are many similar questions about different modules and even some about the import/extensions, but none of the suggested solutions help. I've tried them all. I also tried every single solution posted in every single thread suggested by Stack Overflow while typing this question.

Here is my .eslintrc.json:

{
  "env": {
      "es2021": true,
      "node": true
  },
  "extends": [
      "airbnb-typescript/base",
      "plugin:@typescript-eslint/recommended"
  ],
  "parser": "@typescript-eslint/parser",
  "parserOptions": {
      "ecmaVersion": 12,
      "sourceType": "module",
      "project": "./tsconfig.json"
  },
  "plugins": [
      "@typescript-eslint"
  ],
  "rules": {
      "@typescript-eslint/no-use-before-define": "off"
  }
}

package.json:

{
  "name": "graph-userdata-gateway",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "Gateway for PowerApps Microsoft Graph API custom connector to query user data with application permissions.",
  "main": "src/index.js",
  "scripts": {

  },

    "@microsoft/microsoft-graph-client": "^3.0.0",

    "express": "^4.17.1",
    "isomorphic-fetch": "^3.0.0",

  },
  "devDependencies": {

    "eslint-config-airbnb-typescript": "^13.0.0",
    "eslint-plugin-import": "^2.24.1",
    "typescript": "^4.3.5"
  }
}

tsconfig.json

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "target": "ES6",
    "module": "CommonJS",
    "esModuleInterop": true,
    "noImplicitAny": true,
    "moduleResolution": "Node",
    "outDir": "dist",
    "sourceMap": true
  }
}

I've tried deleting the whole node_mobules and re-running npm install as well as played with the extends in the .eslintrc.json. If I remove airbnb-typescript/base the error disappears, but I lose the Airbnb style from ESLint. Using airbnb-base instead works, but then ESLint complains about Missing file extension for abc.ts and Unable to resolve path to module abc. I have also multiple time restarted VSC and the ESLint server.

You missed adding this in your eslint.json file.

"plugins": ["import"],

Or,

"extends": ["plugin:import/recommended"]
