pytsal

An easy to use low-code open-source python framework for Time Series analysis, visualization and forecasting along with AutoTS.

Why was pytsal created?

I was deeply inspired by pycaret which is an amazing library for Machine Learning, and I wanted to create a similar library for Time Series Analysis.

Therefore, the interface and features provided are very similar to pycaret but focused and customized towards Time Series.

What does pytsal mean?

Pytsal is the abbreviation for Python Time Series Analysis Library
