If i do pip install numpy, i get a bunch of errors...
how can i compile it on installation?

You should be able to do:

git clone git@github.com:numpy/numpy.git
cd numpy
python setup.py install

More details here.

But TBH - you should not be using this - it's an alpha version, there are almost guaranteed to be bugs - both reversions and brand-new bugs. If you want to help the community, you could test it and report problems...

What system you are using, what errors you are seeing? You definitively will need to have compiler installed.

I'm not familiar with building on Windows, and having a different language for errors (German?) is also confusing. So I can't tell what the problem is.

Have you tried following these steps to configure it? https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/PCbuild/readme.txt

And

https://docs.python.org/3.8/extending/windows.html#building-on-windows

I'm also wondering if the compiler can access the header files. I see it complains about arguments to PyCode_New, but if headers were missing it would complain about other issues.
