Hi Abul, Welcome to the community. Learning Dagster has a few prerequisite: Python is the obvious one. Beyond this, it’s mostly about becoming familiar with the Dagster abstractions, and learning the APIs. Hopefully the Dagster Docs will get you there. You can also seek help from the community. I would also recommend some of the starter tutorials found in the Dagster blog. Finally, there is an official course on CoRise should you want to go that route.
Also this example posted yesterday is very cool: https://dagster.slack.com/archives/C01NXMEPJ7R/p1683000983191709

Yes, that would help. In Dagster the mental model is more about building and maintaining data assets, so you can think about what end product you are trying to build (such as a table, a populated database, a csv file etc.) and then build around that.
These are good examples to start with: https://dagster.io/blog/dagster-crash-course-oct-2022
And of course, there is the main tutorial in the docs: https://docs.dagster.io/tutorial/introduction
