Hello everyone,
I am trying to install a development version of Psychopy on my machine. After forking the repository and creating a local copy, I tried following the developer install guide.
When trying to pip install -e ., I get the following errors in the terminal:
Building wheels for collected packages: pyWinhook

I’m running Python version 3.10.10. If this is the problem, I would appreciate it if anyone could help me understand how to overcome it.
Anyways I couldn’t run psychopyApp.py after the above installation.
Thanks,
Chen.
