VS Code assist for Python create new method if they not exists?

I am new to VS code and Python :). I am trying :)

Java is my main coding language and I use(love) IntelliJ IDEA for coding. I chose VS code for python(for many reasons I cannot control)

In InteliJ when coding java , InteliJ code assist prompt for creation of new methods if they not exists, I found this very useful( check attached image) enter image description here

I couldn't find equivalence in VS code for python, Is there is any extension I can use to get this behaviour and many other InteliJ assists( eg: suggestions) ?

I didn't have to look elsewhere , I settled with PyCharm which is developed by InteliJ folks

Two suggestions that might help:

1. My Code Actions extension

After installation, add configuration in settings.json according to the format.

E.g:

  "my-code-actions.actions": {
    "[python]": {
      "import {{diag:$1}}": {
        "diagnostics": ["\"(.*?)\" is not defined"],
        "text": "import {{diag:$1}}\n",
        "where": "afterLast",
        "insertFind": "^(import |from \\w+ import )"
      }
    }
  }

2. Custom code snippets

open in sequence File > Preferences > Configure User Snippets. Select python in the command palette. This will create a python.json file in which you can customize the code segment according to the rules.

E.g:

    "Print to console":{
        "prefix": "defHello",
        "body": [
            "def Hello():",
            "${1:    }print('Hello worle')",
            "$2",
        ],
        "description": "print hello world"
    }
