  discover GitHub repos from CRAN pages as fallback data sources
- Migrate from Poetry to uv (pyproject.toml + uv.lock)
- Update CI workflow to use uv and generate.py pipeline
- Add CONTRIBUTING.md with entry format guidelines
- Add "Submit a Project" button to site nav
- Update review-pr skill with all accepted entry formats
- Update CLAUDE.md to reflect new architecture
- Remove Quarto files (_quarto.yml, *.qmd, sync-site skill, poetry.lock)

CLAUDE.md

This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.

Project Overview

awesome-quant is a curated list of quantitative finance libraries, packages, and resources. The primary content lives in README.md — a large markdown file organized by programming language (Python, R, Matlab, Julia, Java, JavaScript, etc.) with categorized links to open-source projects.

A companion website is generated from this data and deployed to GitHub Pages.

Architecture

The pipeline works as follows:

  1. README.md — The source of truth. All library entries follow the format: - [name](url) - Description.
  2. parse.py — Parses README.md, extracts GitHub/CRAN/PyPI URLs, fetches last commit dates and stars via the GitHub API (using PyGithub with multithreading), and writes site/projects.csv.
  3. site/generate.py — Reads projects.csv (or parses README.md directly) and generates a static HTML site with search, filtering, sorting, and dark mode.
  4. CI (.github/workflows/build.yml) — Runs daily and on push to main: runs parse.py, runs site/generate.py, and deploys to GitHub Pages via gh-pages branch.

Supporting scripts:

  • cranscrape.py — Scrapes CRAN package pages to find associated GitHub repos; writes cran.csv.
  • topic.py — Searches GitHub for repos tagged with a topic (e.g., "quant") above a star threshold.

Commands

# Install dependencies (uses uv, requires Python 3.11+)
uv sync --no-install-project

# Run the parser (requires GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN env var)
GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN=<token> uv run python parse.py

# Generate the static site
uv run python site/generate.py

Contributing Entries

See CONTRIBUTING.md for full guidelines. Accepted entry formats:

- [Project Name](https://github.com/owner/repo) - Description ending with a period.
- [Project Name](https://site.com) - Description ending with a period. [GitHub](https://github.com/owner/repo)
- [Package Name](https://cran.r-project.org/package=pkg) - Description ending with a period.
- [package-name](https://pypi.org/project/pkg/) - Description ending with a period.

CRAN and PyPI entries may optionally append [GitHub](url) after the description.

Entries are grouped under language headings (##) and category subheadings (###). Commercial/proprietary projects go under ## Commercial & Proprietary Services.

parse.py relies on this regex to extract entries: ^\s*- \[(.*)\]\((.*)\) - (.*)$
