Some chapters in this book come with sample files that you can open in Power BI Desktop to explore the concepts and enhancements we provide. The examples largely show designs before and after performance improvements have been implemented. Therefore, it is not mandatory to review these examples, but they do provide useful context and can help teach new concepts through hands-on experience.
