For Windows, only the +Conda-based setup is currently documented, skipping some of the +Linux/macOS-only packages. + +Note that in case you are not using conda on a Windows platform, Arrow C++ +libraries need to be bundled with ``pyarrow``.

Review Comment: Will look into it! I did update the System Requirements section for Linux/macOS and Windows. I tested the new Windows setup and should be good. As for the Linux/macOS min compiler version I haven't tested, only updated the versions as per the info I got online. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
