Technical requirements
There are no specific requirements or preparation steps for this chapter. We will continue working with our thelook_ecommerce dataset (https://console.cloud.google.com/marketplace/product/bigquery-public-data/thelook-ecommerce), switching regularly between LookML, Explore, and dashboard environments inside Looker. We won’t be working with BigQuery (which is the data warehouse used in this book) as we assume our dataset is already connected to Looker and ready to be used in it. But you can keep the BigQuery tab open to preview the tables and get familiarized with the data you’ll be exploring in Looker.
