Cannot Compile Custom Class

Hello, I am attempting to get a custom class for a tech demo however I am running into issues.

First of all Intellisense is jumping up my posterior about UE types, as if it is not pulling the includes in correctly or something. It also does not find the generated.h file for the class. when I attempt to build it, I get a bunch of parse errors due to the previously mentioned UE types not being recognized.

UE Version: 4.21.2
VS2017 Version: 4.7.03062

Here is my code:
// Fill out your copyright notice in the Description page of Project Settings.

#pragma once

#include "CoreMinimal.h"
#include "Runtime/Core/Public/Containers/UnrealString.h"
#include "resource.generated.h"

/**
 * 
 */
UClass(Blueprintable,BlueprintType)
public class MININGTECHDEMO_API resource
{
	GENERATED_BODY();
public:
	resource();
	~resource();	

	UFunction(BluprintCallable)
	void UpdateOAmt(FString operation, float val);
	
	UFunction(BluprintCallable)
	void SetName(FString name);
	
	UFunction(BluprintCallable)
	void SetDesc(FString desc);
	
	UFunction(BluprintCallable)
	void SetType(FString typ);
	
	UFunction(BluprintCallable)
	void SetTier(int tier);
	
	UFunction(BluprintCallable)
	void SetStage(int stage);
	
	UFunction(BluprintCallable)
	void SetBSize(float bsize);
	
	UFunction(BluprintCallable)
	FString GetName();
	
	UFunction(BluprintCallable)
	FString GetDesc();
	
	UFunction(BluprintCallable)
	FString GetType();

	UFunction(BluprintCallable)
	int GetTier();

	UFunction(BluprintCallable)
	int GetStage();

	UFunction(BluprintCallable)
	float GetOAmt();

	UFunction(BluprintCallable)
	float GetBSize();


private:
	int ResTier;
	int ResStage;
	float ResBaseSize;
	float ResOAmt;
	FString ResName;
	FString ResDesc;
	FString ResType;
};

Here are the errors:

ok, I sorted it out. I had to create a new project as somehow I screwed that one up and then I had to fix a couple of things including using UFunction/UClass in all caps and exchanging the ints for uint32s and creating the class as public with the Object class as the super class in the editor. Doing some of that manually didn’t work for the above code for some reason.
