I'm having the same issue. Did you ever solve your problem?

Okay, so I am unashamed fan of KivyInstalller: https://github.com/KeyWeeUsr/KivyInstaller

Unless you are doing dev work, it's a great solution. Seems like you are working on Windows. Does it work for you?

I looked up "error: command 'cl.exe' failed: No such file or directory" and it feels like you either don't have the correct packages installed or else your PATH environment variable (from which you determine which directories executable files can be run from) is missing the location of 'cl.exe'?

Okay, but that is probably trying to install it locally? i.e. into your native python installation. Please try KivyInstaller (link above) to just get you up and running. Once we know that is working, we can investigate further...
