😞 I'm trying to install prefect library on my new(ish) laptop and this is failing: pip install -U prefect How can I diagnose what's actually wrong here?

What does the error message say? If you post in the thread someone might be able to help.

It's a HUGE error ... .
the things that stick out for me ..... can't find Rust compiler & update pip
but I have the latest version of pip

If you don't have rust installed, I suggest installing that. Couldn't hurt to update pip with the command provided. If you aren't doing all this in a virtual environment, I would switch to using a virtual environment. I would use miniconda.
