Hello - my name is Oscar, I work with @User on Dolt at DoltHub, and we are working with the Kedro team on an integration. It's good to be here!

Hi @User nice to see hear from you again!

Glad we are hanging out on Discord!

Yaaay! Kedro is on Discord 🎉

Nice to see you, @datajoely

and you!

hope you're well

Hello I am Waylon Walker. I build, deploy, manage, and review kedro pipelines by day by night I build tools, write articles, and stream about it. You can find links to all the places on https://waylonwalker.com

@User nice website!

Thanks Oscar I greatly appreciate it!

I didn't introduce myself but I work on product with @User 🥳 I've been on Kedro since before it was open-source. And I'm glad @User is here, he's a fantastic Kedroid!

Hello! My name is Anish (https://www.linkedin.com/in/anish-shah/) 👋. I work at Brilliant Hire by SAP (https://www.brillianthire.io/) as the "data person". Nice to meet y'all!

Thanks for all the shout outs ! Much appreciated. I started using it just before open source ~March 2019.

Hey @Anish Shah @ WANDB 👋, nice to meet you. Are you currently using kedro?

@User Yes I am! Huge fan of the concept, currently using it to build out our very early versions of our ML/DS infrastructure as a capable N00B lol

Hi everyone! I'm Merel, a Software Engineer on the Kedro team

Hi Everyone! I am Lukas, I think Kedro is fascinating tool and would love to use it, just need to learn how to lol.

Hello @User l! What features have you worked on that we would recognize?

Heyy Everyone, I am Dhruv, Senior software engineer, Data engineer, technical blogger , I am here to learn about kedro

Welcome @User! shout if you need anything

Yup, thanks. What skill set do you guys gave which makes you idle for developing kedro? Only Python programming skill?

@User - Python is key to Kedro, one of the reasons we built it internally was because parts of the team were all writing different languages between Python, R, Scala and SQL. We felt (and still feel) that Python was the best compromise between development speed/readability and 'futureproofness' In terms of getting started with Kedro I would encourage you to follow our space flights' tutorial or just build something with some open data and get a feel for a framework

Thanks, I will go through this ! You guys are so helpful !

@User please share a link to the blog! Python is a key skill to have when working on a kedro pipeline. having a strong understanding of the standard library will go a long way. You can build a pipeline with just vanilla data structures, but its not very common. I would add a data processing library/language/framework to the list. Common ones would be pandas, dask, pyspark, sql.

Here you go @waylonwalker, thanks for asking

SQL problem solved using Pyspark !! https://link.medium.com/KI6DHZpQghb Pandas - Zero to Hero ( Series -1) https://link.medium.com/K4bbjluQghb Pandas — Zero to Hero — Part 2 https://link.medium.com/HLVvk9sQghb Pandas — Zero to Hero — Part 3 https://link.medium.com/YZDv8xJQghb What is hadoop and why we use it ?? https://link.medium.com/YzWcbcDQghb Segment data based on some criteria using Python https://link.medium.com/4WD2Z4EQghb Getting Started with Docker-101 https://link.medium.com/W4LS7uGQghb

I will try to write an article on kedro if you guys allow me or grant me permission

Of course! Happy to work with you as you write it 🙂

Thanks @datajoely , same here. 😀
