Creating a project profile

As requested by your manager, you've initialized your dbt project. Reading further through the documentation, you notice that you need to create the project profile, which defines where your database / data warehouse information is defined. Your project is experimental at this point, and needs to work with DuckDB, a locally running database tool.

You notice that dbt primarily uses YAML (abbreviated .yml) files for its configuration. On YAML files, you'll need to maintain spacing / formatting as illustrated to make sure the file parsing succeeds.
