  note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.
error: metadata-generation-failed

× Encountered error while generating package metadata.
╰─> See above for output.

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

and later I do a pip list to verify if it has installed anything and I see that there is nothing.
Does anyone know what is failing?
Thank you.

There is an error in the output. That is way it is failing.

This means that you need to install MySQL. The mysqlclient package allows Python code to work with MySQL databases, but MySQL itself is not written in Python. You will need to install it separately.
