Hey everyone! So excited to be here and finally diving into the community. I've been lurking for a bit, trying to absorb everything, but now I need some real guidance.

I see all these amazing workflow recipes in this subforum, with people orchestrating multiple tools to produce content consistently. It's a bit overwhelming, honestly! My background is in data engineering—I'm comfortable with ETL pipelines in Python, SQL, and I'm starting to learn Airflow for orchestration. But applying that to *content* workflows? I'm drawing a blank on the first step.

I think I get the high-level idea: treat content creation like a data pipeline. But what does that actually look like? For example, if I wanted to start a simple blog post pipeline, what are the basic "stages"? Is it like: idea generation -> draft -> edit -> publish -> track? And then what tools fit into each stage? I'm used to tools like dbt for transformation, but I'm guessing that's not right for this.

Could someone point me to a super simple, beginner-friendly recipe or template? Something that shows the skeleton of a pipeline, maybe even with placeholders for the tools? I learn best by seeing a concrete example I can tweak.

Thanks in advance for helping a rookie out!
