Description

This PR adds a CONTRIBUTING_WINDOWS.md file to help new contributors navigate common issues when building AsterixDB on Windows environments.

Changes

  • Added specific Maven flags (-DskipTests, -Dmdep.analyze.skip=true) to bypass path resolution errors.
  • Documented Java 17+ --add-opens requirements.
  • Included tips for skipping the dashboard build if NPM/Node is not configured.

Purpose

I encountered these hurdles while setting up my environment for the GSoC NL2SQL project. Adding this documentation will lower the barrier for other students and developers.
