│   │   ├── small-dataset/        a few rows, to follow every step of a calculation
│   │   └── big-dataset/          5 years of orders, for aggregations and LOD
│   └── non-eu/                   the same files with a dot: 12.5
├── 02_docs/                      the slides and the cheat sheets, as PDF
├── 03_workbooks/                 the finished workbook of every section (.twbx)
└── 04_projects/                  the two end-to-end projects, each with its requirements
    ├── sales-dashboard-project/  the sales and customer dashboards
    └── hr-dashboard-project/     the HR dashboard

EU or non-EU? Take eu if you are in Europe, non-eu everywhere else. To be sure, connect Orders.csv in Tableau: Sales, Profit and Discount must show the green number icon (#). If they show Abc, take the other folder.
