Problem:
On aarch64 architecture, pip install Brotli downloads the source distribution of it and build it. Directly downloading the wheel file and installing the same is quite efficient rather than building and installing from the source code. Also, it requires development environments to be installed on the user's machine.

Overall, it is painful to install Brotli on aarch64 as it doesn't have aarch64 wheels on PyPi.

Resolution:
pip should be able to download aarch64 wheels from PyPi and install same.

@eustas and team, please let me know your interest here. I can help you in building and uploading aarch64 wheels on PyPi.
