installing pyspark on my m1 mac, getting an env error
The other approach I've used is Poetry, see the chispa project as an example. Poetry is especially nice for projects that you'd like to publish to PyPi because those commands are built-in.

Spark: local dev environment

Pyspark now provides a native Pandas API
Pandas syntax is far inferior to regular PySpark in my opinion. Goes to show how much data analysts value a syntax that they're already familiar with. Pandas syntax makes it harder to reason about queries, abstract DataFrame transformations, etc. I've authored some popular PySpark libraries like quinn and chispa and am not excited to add Pandas syntax support, haha.

Tips for building popular open source data engineering projects
Blogging has been the main way I've been able to attract users. Someone searches "testing PySpark", they see this blog, and then they're motivated to try chispa.

Ask HN: What are some tools / libraries you built yourself?
I built daria (https://github.com/MrPowers/spark-daria) to make it easier to write Spark and spark-fast-tests (https://github.com/MrPowers/spark-fast-tests) to provide a good testing workflow.
quinn (https://github.com/MrPowers/quinn) and chispa (https://github.com/MrPowers/chispa) are the PySpark equivalents.
Built bebe (https://github.com/MrPowers/bebe) to expose the Spark Catalyst expressions that aren't exposed to the Scala / Python APIs.
Also build spark-sbt.g8 to create a Spark project with a single command: https://github.com/MrPowers/spark-sbt.g8
