#041: A simple 4-step process for creating dbt models
May 11, 2023We all start our dbt models the same way.
...Staring at a blank .sql file.
But what you do next will significantly impact how your project turns out.
In today’s video I want to share with you the easy 4-step process I follow when building dbt models.
And how this simple approach can save you tons of time in both development and long term maintenance.
What will you learn?
- How to build dbt models in 4 steps
- How Python can teach us to write cleaner sql
- How all of this can save you time (and $)
Hope you enjoy it and see you next week!
