Reviewer scorecard
“SQL + markdown = BI dashboards. Version control your analytics like code. Genius simplicity.”
“Pythonic decorators for workflow orchestration. No DAGs to configure — just Python functions with retries and caching.”
“For teams that think in SQL, Evidence produces better dashboards than clicking through Metabase or Tableau.”
“Easier to learn than Airflow and the Python-native approach means less boilerplate. Good free cloud tier.”
“Code-based BI aligns analytics with engineering best practices — version control, review, testing.”
“Python-native orchestration is more natural for data teams. Prefect and Dagster represent the post-Airflow era.”
