C:\Users\rafal\Downloads>pip install pycairo
Requirement already satisfied: pycairo in c:\python36\lib\site-packages (1.16.3)

I downloaded GTK , by using this tutorial https://www.gtk.org/download/windows.php And PygoObject by using this tutorial: http://pygobject.readthedocs.io/en/latest/getting_started.html

Can you help?

Answer 1

appkit on Windows uses PyGObject which requires PyCairo which requires cairo which you don't have. You have to install cairo with sources.
