Description
Onboarding users with varying levels of expertise to Kedro has always proven challenging. To lower this barrier, I have designed a CLI-based quick-start guide that allows users to pick up and get a taste of Kedro in under 30 minutes.
Scope
The quick-start guide has 3 sections:
- Explore: A 10-minute guide from installing Kedro, creating a starter project to visualising the pipelines.
- Explain: An introduction to the 4 key concepts: project template, data catalog, node, and pipeline.
- Explore: Next steps, resources, and links to continue your Kedro journey.
Prototype
-
A prototype of the HTML version can be experienced at this link, and hosted in this repo.
-
Additionally, the quick-start guide has been added to the Kedro documentation under the branch docs/quick-start in the Kedro repository. You can experience this by downloading the repo and run mkdocs serve on the CLI.
Discussion
- To consider whether this is "quick-start guide" is valuable for both our CST colleagues and Kedro community.
