Coding tips

Best practices

My lecture series “Code, Data, and Version Control: Best Practices for Economic Research” is a crash course in how to organize empirical projects, write good code, manage data, and use version control.

The replication package for my paper “The Summer Drop in Female Employment” (with Melanie Wasserman) illustrates these principles in practice.

“Spartan Stata Graphics” offers a Stata scheme file and accompanying code to produce effective, minimalist figures.
