The situation with pip installing numpy or libraries that compile against numpy on apple m1 is very frustrating currently. There are no numpy binary wheels (numpy's official position is that apple m1 is not supported) and the source distribution fails to compile correctly due to the pinned wheel version in the numpy setup (currently for numpy 1.19.3--1.20.1), so any packages that use build isolation by default fail to get installed correctly. (numpy itself uses build isolation and so do our packages.) I should probably write a blog post on how to do this, but the basics are here:
