Portfolio studio

Ship work an economist can inspect

Three reproducible capstones with guided and unguided modes, local code, and notebook or HTML export.

Guided curricula

Choose a learning path

Every route uses the same rigorous courses in a deliberate order. Switch routes whenever your goal changes.

Mastery loop

Learn it four ways

Completion means you acted: readings are confirmed, code must run, interactives must launch, and assessments must be solved.

  1. 01

    Understand

    Start from the economic question and the identifying assumption.

  2. 02

    Estimate

    Run real statsmodels code in a private browser-side Python runtime.

  3. 03

    Experiment

    Move parameters and watch bias, uncertainty, and dynamics respond.

  4. 04

    Prove

    Solve varied assessments with hints and precise explanations.
