Summary
The documentation demonstrates a bias towards Windows environments, primarily through the explicit requirement for WINUTILS.EXE (a Windows-only tool) for running Spark locally, and the lack of Linux-specific instructions or alternatives. Windows prerequisites and patterns (such as HADOOP_HOME and WINUTILS.exe location) are mentioned without Linux equivalents, and there are no examples or troubleshooting steps for Linux users. The documentation assumes a Windows setup for local Spark development and omits guidance for Linux users, despite HDInsight Spark clusters themselves being Linux-based.
Recommendations
- Provide clear instructions for running Spark locally on Linux and macOS, including necessary environment variables and dependencies.
- Replace or supplement WINUTILS.EXE requirements with Linux/macOS equivalents, or clarify when it is only needed for Windows users.
- Add troubleshooting steps and configuration examples for Linux and macOS users, especially for local development and debugging.
- Explicitly state OS-specific prerequisites and steps, and ensure Linux/macOS instructions are given equal prominence to Windows.
- Review all examples and dialog instructions to ensure they are not Windows-centric, and add screenshots or notes for Linux/macOS where applicable.
