An in-browser macroeconomic simulator for teaching. It offers a variety of starting scenarios, including real national economies or historical events such as the 2008 crash or 1970s stagflation. The interface graphs six variables over time, with a textual interpretation of how the economy is doing. The user has 14 different "levers" they can alter, covering Central Bank policy, government spending, global shocks and structure, and public attitudes. The first time you use the site there is an optional tour which explains all elements of the interface. Scenarios can be shared by link. A "Methodology and limits" page explains the equations of the model and the sources of data.
