Trouble installing tenpy

[Kelvin]

Dear all,

I'm having trouble installing tenpy on Jupyter Notebook. I typed

!pip install physics-tenpy

and ran it, but after half an hour it is still running, and I'm not sure what's going on. I'm rather a caveman when it comes to technology, sorry if I did something stupid here

Thank you.

Now I tried installing it on my laptop's command prompt. The following error showed up:

error: Microsoft Visual C++ 14.0 is required. Get it with "Microsoft Visual C++ Build Tools": https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/

I tried downloading and install visual studio build tools, but things remain the same. Very confused as to what's going on.

On personal laptops, I'd recommend to download anaconda and install the corresponding conda package, then you don't need any build tool yourself.
Note that the latest version 0.9 is by now over a year old, I'll release a new version either today or on Monday....
