[IBMiOSS] AIX Compiler and Python Crypto Package Install on IBMi

We have a SalesForce integration project that we are attempting from one
of our custom application systems
and we want to attempt to use Python to perform the integration.

We need the following python package (to perform the JWT OAuth
authentication signing request)
https://cryptography.io/en/latest/

We have a few questions as we have not attempted this level of integration
before.

1. We need the IBM AIX compiler installed to install the above Python
package as it attempts to use the AIX C compiler upon installation.
I assume we need to license the compiler, does anyone have any tips or
can give us some direction on exactly how to pursue?

Found this links:

We need these compilers: XL C/C++ for AIX, XL C for AIX, or XL Fortran
for AIX
and this PRPQ? 5799-PTL - Tools for Developers for i5/OS? PRPQ

2. Has anyone integrated the above crypto package on the IBMi?

Thanks

Jim
