To complete the project: No, while you are playing with packages you should already been studying what it is capable of. Read the documentation of the packages and check the parameters, that is equivalent to coding experience since you are using it. Most importantly, the package you are using should align with your research goal and outcome.
Code from scratch is when you cant find resources from the internet to finish your work.

Gotcha makes sense, I’m just at least trying to understand what the package does and a bit of theory for my understanding of the result of the package outputs as well

You could try challenging yourself to code the algo and see if its working the same, no one is stopping you.
Bonus: You can do 2 versions of your project, one is your own code and one is full of packages. Submit them together and state the comparisons in your research report, I guarantee you your grades will be different.
Since youre doubting yourself or still not feeling confident, why not just try it?

That’s true. I should try it. A whole other problem for me is I’m trying to get better at “math to code” skills. I study mathematics and statistics and I can read and write proofs but translating things to code can sometimes be a bit of a hurdle for me at first. But this can help develop those skills I guess

I see, during my college days I had to convert mathematical formulas from papers into code myself too. I was doing algorithm benchmark and all sorts of benchmark functions were in mathematical form and theres no Python version of them on the internet.
What coding language are u using?

Python
