- This is a development record. Scope, release, and completion claims remain limited to the artifacts linked here.
The FRED-fetch and panel-construction layer predates later teaching tools; a stripped-down version has supported generalized macroeconomics instruction. The Numba acceleration matters when rolling-window VARs run over a 60-year monthly panel and the data pipeline would otherwise dominate the analysis time.
Private until I’ve cleaned up the API and decided whether it’s a paper-accompaniment release or a standalone tool.
