Automating dbt Development with Pre-Commit

Automation will make your dbt development faster and safer — but how do you get started? In this workshop we'll introduce you to the "Software Development Life Cycle" and some of the automation opportunities it offers from pre-commit to CI and beyond.

This workshop is ideal for the decision maker who is planning for their team or for the intermediate to advanced dbt developer who wants to become more efficient and learn a thing or two from software workflows. We'll talk about how automation can minimize the risk of code changes, shorten your time to merge, and improve quality and standardization throughout your projects.

Bring your laptop with dbt 1.0+ installed to follow along or just come and watch the walk-through! You'll start this workshop with a simple dbt project and end with local pre-commit automation on your computer and a framework for further improvement and iteration.
