I would recommend you ask on the kivy project's page, this is a repo with a pybind11 example. I have heard of kivy, but never installed it.

One thought is to check your pip version and make sure it's not too old. Something starting with 19 or 20 is probably the oldest you should be expecting to work (current one is pip 21.1). Very old pip versions can't download wheels or build pyproject.toml projects. Kivy distributes manylinux2010 wheels on Linux, which require pip 19.0 or newer.
