Getting this error while installing with pip.

I have a Windows 11 system. pip install django-celery did not work there. I have also tried this in multiple computers (all Windows, didn't try on any native Linux system) I have also tried this on WSL in my windows. Everywhere I had the same error.

Please can you help me solve this issue!

I am getting the same error...the exact same error.

I have a deployed solution on Python 3.11 and Django 4.1.6. I am installing through the PyCharm terminal.

So far, researching the error has surfaced a few suggestions on Stack Overflow that did not work.

why you use this package? this is not for celery 4.x+ versions

[Carewen]

Because I have not used Celery before, am learning how this all works and eventually realized this has been deprecated.

@auvipy sorry for not pointing this out; people are getting confused by my raised issue.
I had solved this issue within a couple of days of raising it.

I'll make it clear to people who are having the same issue...

You are not supposed to use this for recent Django projects. You can straightaway use the normal pip install celery
