MinFin in Python provides a flexible and reproducible way to explore MINFin workflows in a programmable environment. It is designed for users who want to test assumptions, adapt analysis steps, and work with MINFin methods through transparent, open-source code.
The Python version supports early exploration of MINFin concepts alongside the existing Excel-based tool. It can help researchers, analysts, and policy teams experiment with financial modelling workflows, review calculations, and build confidence before adapting the approach to more detailed national planning contexts.
You can try MinFin in Python directly in your browser using Google Colab, with no local installation required. The notebook is intended for trial use, learning, and early exploration.
