library pocketsphinx not downloading using pip or binary files

I am working on a speech recognition software and wanted to test out pocketsphinx and have tried to install it using pip on windows 10 python version 3.8 and it wont download usually i would fix the problem by downloading it as binary file and then trying to install it but it tells me that the whl file is unsupported and thank you all in advance.

Down below is the error message I got.

ERROR: Command errored out with exit status 1:

I expected the binary files to work but the gave me this error message

ERROR: pocketsphinx-0.1.15-cp36-cp36m-win32.whl is not a supported wheel on this platform.

And then i tried another binary file (the win64 amd one) and it gave me this error:

ERROR: pocketsphinx-0.1.15-cp36-cp36m-win_amd64.whl is not a supported wheel on this platform.

This is the second time I'm coming across this error today, the first was with pyaudio. What i did was I went to https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#pyaudio, looked for the wheels I wanted to download for pyaudio and pocketsphinx (I use Python 3.8.2 on a Windows 10 so I downloaded the cp-38-cp-38_win_amd64 wheels). After downloading you simply run pip install path/to/downloaded/wheel.

ERROR: pocketsphinx-0.1.15-cp36-cp36m-win32.whl is not a supported wheel on this platform

You're trying to install a wheel for Python 3.6 to Python 3.8. That doesn't work.

The latest release of pocketsphinx was released at Jun 4, 2018, more than a year ago. Python 3.8 didn't exist at that time so they don't provide wheels for it.

Actually they don't even have wheels for Python 3.7. Either you have to use Python 3.6 or compile the project from sources. To compile from sources you need a number of prerequisites.

The error

error: command 'swig.exe' failed: No such file or directory

means that you miss one of the prerequisites — SWIG.
