Can't install Web3 using Pip no matter what (Mac User)

[jacobbinnie]

Hey there, Pretty new to all of this but been trying to setup web3 using pip in VSC.

When I try installing using pip3 install web3 (or pip install web3) it starts downloading but gets 5 seconds in and produces this big long error. I've tried understanding it and reading a tonne of discussion forums to solve it but nothing seems to be working. Help?

Hey, @jacobbins have you installed latest Visual Studio Build Tools , if not go ahead and download Visual Studio

• Follow this Download link
• Download and install the build tools
• After the installation is complete, you will see the following

• Make sure you check "Desktop Development with C++"
• After this completes, restart your device and run pip install web3

You can follow through this YouTube Tutorial. I hope the installation process isn't much different on MacOS

As I'm on a Mac, the above answer 'Downloading Visual Studio Build Tools' unfortunately doesn't solve it. However, after hours and hours of trying to figure out what I needed, I simply needed to download 'Command Line Tools For xCode'. Here's a link for any Mac users racking their brains right now :-)
