Academic Paper Writer
If you're writing economics papers and tired of staring at blank LaTeX files, this gives you proper templates for introductions, results sections, and conclusions that follow actual economics conventions. It walks you through IMRAD structure, reminds you to lead with your coefficient in the first sentence of results, and includes things like how to build up specifications column by column in tables. The templates are opinionated in a good way, like putting your main finding in the introduction's third paragraph and being specific about economic vs. statistical significance. It's built for empirical work primarily, and the advice comes straight from the Cochrane and Shapiro references economists actually pass around.
