Hey! Yeah, I ran into the same pip install error: externally-managed-environment recently. It’s super annoying, but it’s basically Python’s way of saying "don’t mess with the system Python."
I ended up using a virtual environment instead of the `--break-system-packages` flag. It’s cleaner and safer. Just run `python -m venv myenv`, activate it, and then install your packages. No errors, no fuss.
If you’re not into virtual environments, you could also try using `pipx` for installing Python apps globally without messing with the system Python. It’s a lifesaver!
