Welcome to firecrown’s documentation!

Introduction

Firecrown is a Python package that provides the DESC framework to implement likelihoods, as well as specific likelihood implementations. Firecrown is intended to be usable from external statistical analysis tools.

Currently, it supports Cobaya, CosmoSIS, and NumCosmo, providing the necessary classes or modules to allow users the sampling frameworks to call any Firecrown likelihood from within those samplers.

• Cobaya

• CosmoSIS

• NumCosmo

It can also be used as a library in other contexts, and so the installation of Firecrown does not require the installation of a sampler.

Note

Before installing Firecrown, we recommend visiting the tutorial site. This site serves as a comprehensive resource for Firecrown, offering both pre-installation information and post-installation guidance.
