Welcome to the **PySparkTutorial** repository!
This repository is a comprehensive guide to mastering PySpark through hands-on tutorials and examples.
Whether you're a beginner or looking to deepen your understanding of PySpark, this resource has something for everyone.## Prerequisites
Make sure you have the following installed:
- [Visual Studio Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/)
- [Docker](https://www.docker.com/)
- [Remote - Containers extension for VS Code](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-vscode-remote.remote-containers)## Getting Started
### 1. **Clone the Snippets Repository**
First, clone the repository containing the code to your local machine:
```sh
git clone https://github.com/gvatsal60/PySparkTutorial.git
```### 2. **Open the Directory in VSCode:**
- Open the current directory in VS Code.
- Press `F1` (or `Ctrl+Shift+P` on Windows/Linux, `Cmd+Shift+P` on macOS).
- Search for and select **"Dev Containers: Reopen in Container"**.### 3. **Wait for the Setup:**
- VS Code will build the dev container image (if required) and start the container.
- Once completed, you’ll be inside the dev container environment.### 4. **Start Working:**
- Now you can develop in the isolated and pre-configured **PySpark** container environment.
