Getting the most out of dbt docs
SummaryAI, from the source post

This post details the integration of dbt descriptions into Hex's database schema browser. Previously, users had to navigate to a separate dbt docs site, creating friction. This new feature surfaces model, source, and column descriptions directly within Hex, alongside test statuses and a link to the dbt docs site. This aims to reduce the need for users to ask data teams for definitions and improve the discoverability and understanding of datasets.
