Help please
Solution 1:
https://github.com/kivy/kivy/releases/tag/2.0.0
Currently supported Python versions are 3.6 - 3.9.
To sum it up, you will have to wait for a while for the developers of the Kivy project to package the library to 3.10. Meanwhile, you can still use Kivy on Python 3.9 without any issue
