Is there a way to install pyqt5-tools on python 3.11

I want to download pyqt5-tools to download and use QtEditor using this command on windows
pip install pyqt5-tools
But when I put in the command in cmd I get this message

As you see everything goes fine untill the preparing metadata part. I heard that it won't work on versions above 3.9 but is there a workaround for that?

I ran pip install -r requirements.txt accordingly to their instruction. It returned an error below. I am using a Macbook and I'm not sure if it supports the Macbook.

Python3 Subprocess Exited with Error (pyproject.toml)

I'm installing this package https://github.com/fuzailpalnak/kaizen, with this command:
pip3 install kaizen-mapping
but I'm getting this error. I've looked up online from many sites have a similar error, which seems to suggest that the root of the error is likely in the python version or in pip. Anyone knows how I can resolve this issue? Thanks!

P.S. Another thing I tried was installing it with this as I saw it from another Stackoverflow site that this is how they resolved it but the same error:
pip3 install kaizen-mapping --use-deprecated=legacy-resolver

You has not installed Cython -- This is clearly written in there:
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
OSError: Cython needs to be installed in Python as a module
You can try pip install cython and try it again.

I had similar issues with my home system and got it figured out. The work system is using PyCharm. On my home system I needed to go into the PyCharm folder and run in venv. I am unable to do that here at work. So I am giving up and just sticking to PyQt5 here.
Thanks.

What version of python did you install? Because i had the same problem and for me the update to a recent version of python (3.9 to 3.10) have solved the problem

how can I fix this I have installed the Microsoft C++ buildtools and tried downloading It using the pyqt5 wheel file (gives me a this file is not a supported wheel on this platform

Please, try:
Download file PyQt5-5.15.4-cp36.cp37.cp38.cp39-none-win_amd64.whl from the page
https://pypi.org/project/PyQt5/#files
Rename it to PyQt5-5.15.4-py3-none-win_amd64.whl
Run pip install PyQt5-5.15.4-py3-none-win_amd64.whl
I was able to install it into Python 3.10 virtual environment, then was able to run example from https://zetcode.com/gui/pyqt5/firstprograms/
