Error using "pip install wrf-python"

Hi! I want to install wrf-python package on macOS without installing conda on my device. I tried using pip install wrf-python, and it gives the following error:

Collecting wrf-python Using cached wrf-python-1.3.4.1.tar.gz (1.1 MB) Installing build dependencies ... done Getting requirements to build wheel ... error error: subprocess-exited-with-error

I am confused how to troubleshoot, I am new to wrf-python, and these are my currently installed packages:

Hi, I have the same problem. Could you write how did you solve this problem?

I think I was able to install it using homebrew, let me know if you are unable to do it this way
