ERROR: Could not build wheels for tulipy which use PEP 517 and cannot be installed directly


so I have checked every post that relates to this issue and I still can't seem to make this work. I am trying to install tulipy using pip on a Windows machine. I've installed numerous other pip based programs with no issues. I tried reinstalling VS Build Tools, but that doesn't seem to help either. I need tulipy for a project I'm working on, so I can't use any alternatives.

C:\Users\bette>pip install tulipy --user
