Week 6: study notes galore and prepping for Practice Project
There were 9 new study notes added to the Study Guide and we are now ready to add more meat to our Practice Project.
Part of the “Mastering dbt” series. Access to the full Study Guide. Let’s connect on LinkedIn!
Another week and a whopping 9 study notes were added to the Study Guide. Honestly, I was just dying to get to Practice Checkpoint 2 and start adding more meat to our project.
I am particularly proud of The 4 key dbt commands and node selectors post as it really helped me understand the behind-the-scenes steps of building a resource on dbt.
Study notes added:
Last week, we covered 2 resources: models and sources. We also covered key dbt commands, how to select specific resources, and some guidelines for debugging.

A full list of the study notes is available in the main post.
Practice project - Checkpoint 2
Next week, we are going to put the theory of Checkpoint 2 into practice and add more configurations and properties to models and resources, play around with source freshness and commands, and add more models to our project.
Exciting times!
