When trying to install radian following the recommended installation call with pip: pip3 install -U radian it creates an error with the rchitect dependency.
The error messages as follow:

Installing collected packages: rchitect, radian
  DEPRECATION: rchitect is being installed using the legacy 'setup.py install' method, because it does not have a 'pyproject.toml' and the 'wheel' package is not installed. pip 23.1 will enforce this behaviour change. A possible replacement is to enable the '--use-pep517' option. Discussion can be found at https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/8559

  note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.
error: legacy-install-failure

× Encountered error while trying to install package.
╰─> rchitect

note: This is an issue with the package mentioned above, not pip.
hint: See above for output from the failure.

I tried to follow the recommendations from the error log but no luck
Any ideas how to fix it?
Thanks for your great work on this
