Motivation

Currently, setting up a local development environment on Windows can be challenging due to Docker/WSL configuration and encoding issues.

Changes

  1. Added docs/WINDOWS_DEVELOPMENT.md: A comprehensive step-by-step guide for Windows users covering:
    • Prerequisites (Java 17, Docker Desktop).
    • Troubleshooting Docker/WSL/BIOS issues.
    • Setting up LocalStack (S3 Mock) correctly.
    • Fixing common region mismatch errors.
  2. Updated build.gradle: Added explicit UTF-8 encoding for JavaCompile and ScalaCompile tasks. This fixes the unmappable character for encoding windows-1252 error encountered on Windows systems.

Verification

  • Verified the setup steps locally on Windows 11.
  • Confirmed that gradle build succeeds after applying the UTF-8 fix.
