Had a look in the issues and couldn't see this, but as I am not an expert user, apologies in advance if I am duplicating it.
pip install does not work in python 3.9.7 here is what I receive in Spyder:

pip install bpy
Note: you may need to restart the kernel to use updated packages.
ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement bpy (from versions: none)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for bpy

bpy is a module builtin to Blender, you don’t install it via pip. When running a Blender addon, bpy will be available automatically.

Can you describe what you are trying to accomplish?

Thanks for the response. the line above the home page of bpy website confused me. it reads "pip install bpy"
here: https://pypi.org/project/bpy/
So I thought it is pip installable.
I was trying to run my script in an external IDE, i.e. Spyder and have Blender render it. But it seems that I got the usability wrong. I can also try running directly in Blender using scripting there.
