Issue in building databricks source code on ARM platform

Hi,

I am attempting to build the Databricks Koalas source code on an ARM platform but am encountering an error. Could anyone provide specific steps for building it on ARM?

Hi @Alberto_Umana,

I am trying to build Koalas following the steps mentioned in the Contributing Guide — Koalas 1.8.2 documentation:
1. git clone https://github.com/databricks/koalas.git
2. pip install pyspark==2.4
pip install -r requirements-dev.txt
pip install -e .

Could you confirm if I am following the correct steps? My goal is to build the Databricks source code—am I proceeding in the right way?

Hi @mohakgoel,

You’re on the right track with the steps you’ve mentioned for building Koalas.

It’s important to note that building Koalas is not the same as building the entire Databricks source code. Koalas is an open-source project that provides a pandas-like API on top of Apache Spark, originally developed by Databricks but now maintained by the community
