Build an Evidence report around one business question using a known dataset and a SQL query whose result you can calculate independently. Add a chart and explanatory text, then publish it through the intended build pipeline. Verify data freshness, permissions, and how a broken query appears to readers.
Code-driven reporting can make reviews reproducible, but it also needs owners for data definitions and deployment. Keep query changes in version control and compare rendered numbers with the source before trusting a polished dashboard.
