Django - Can't install zappa

Question

I am trying to install zappa for my Django project with the pip install zappa command.

For some reason I am getting the error message:

Collecting kappa==0.6.0
  Using cached kappa-0.6.0.tar.gz (29 kB)
  Preparing metadata (setup.py): started
  Preparing metadata (setup.py): finished with status 'error'
  error: subprocess-exited-with-error

  python setup.py egg_info did not run successfully.
  exit code: 1

  note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.
error: metadata-generation-failed

Encountered error while generating package metadata.

See above for output.

note: This is an issue with the package mentioned above, not pip.
hint: See above for details.

I am using Windows 10 and Python 3.10.1 .

[Edit] my pip list results are:

With pip pip -V being pip 22.0.4 from C:\Users\F\...\pip (python 3.10)

I haven't found any similar issues online so I could use some help to solve it.
