What are some effective techniques for using dbt?

Some effective techniques include modular modeling, using macros for reusable code, and implementing tests for data quality.

Can you explain modular modeling in more detail?

Modular modeling involves breaking down your data transformations into smaller, reusable models, making it easier to manage and understand.

What are macros in dbt?

Macros in dbt are reusable snippets of SQL code that can be called in your models, helping to reduce redundancy and improve maintainability.

How can I implement tests for data quality in dbt?

You can implement tests in dbt by defining them in your model files, using built-in tests or creating custom tests to validate your data.
