A lot of work to set up?

I'm quite surprised to hear that.

It's literally pip install, a single file for your DB config and that's it. 30-40 seconds.

I'm in no way affiliated with dbt but have worked with the tool since 2018.

Lighter, faster, sure, but hard to set up?

I'm not sure where you'd want to cut corners on setup.
