Empowering Reproducible Finance through Tidy Finance with R and Python
summary
A public, open-source textbook and website (tidyfinance.org, GitHub repo) reproduces asset-pricing examples in both R and Python editions, uses Quarto to combine narrative, code, and plain console results, and lands a CRC Press publication while keeping HTML sources editable. Porting takes a year, uses ChatGPT as a starting translator but requires extensive debugging, uncovers mistakes during cross-language checks, and creates a double maintenance burden; Posit/Quarto pre-release features make multi-output builds feasible. Exact reproducible code and data are provided.
