Contributor guide

Research direction
Identify which tests fail on Windows by running the test suite locally. Common issues include path separator differences (backslash vs forward slash), line ending differences (CRLF vs LF), or platform specific code. Once identified, adjust the test or fix the code to be platform independent.
