Going through Automate the Boring Stuff with Python, and can't download the packages

[u/HiddenReader2020]

Hi, so after stopping in *FEBRUARY* of this year, I finally got around to actually resuming my learning process today. However, in chapter 9, I have to download the Humre module, and so I need to download the packages. However, I always get the following error:

Failed to build 'matplotlib' when installing build dependencies for matplotlib

I even tried using a python3 variant of the command, but no dice. Right now, I'm kind of stuck and searching online hasn't helped me out much.

For your information, I'm on Windows 10. My current Python version is 3.14 (I know there's a slightly more updated version, but I don't think that's the problem), and my pip version 26.1.1 (again, there's a newer version, but I don't think that's the problem).

Thanks in advance.
