For that tutorial, a prerequisite is Creating a workspace and for that tutorial a prerequisite is colcon installation Which tells you to install python3-colcon-common-extensions

You don't clarify which installation instructions you followed. I suspect that you installed prebuilt binaries that don't need the build tools to run. There are different instructions for how to install ROS 2 to be able to run, versus being able to build.
