I'm learning Power Query from a book, which uses AdventureWorks2016 (not LT or DW versions) for its examples. The book doesn't list SQL or T-SQL as prerequisites, and I know neither. This post is to ask for help with installing my first SQL server and database, unless there's an AdventureWorks2016 database to which anyone can connect or you can recommend another solution.
Since I don't have
AdventureWorks2016.bacpac to import into Azure SQL Database, Azure (which would be easier) isn't a feasible solution. SQL Server's Express edition should be an adequate solution, but where are its Microsoft Docs to install a SQL server on a personal
computer with Windows 10? After I install a server, I should
attach a datafile for AdventureWorks2016? Thanks!
