TinyStan

Warning

This project is still under active development. The API is not yet stable, and the documentation is incomplete. Using before a 1.0 release is not recommended for most users.

TinyStan is a library that provides a C interface to the Stan algorithms, such as sampling with the No-U-Turn Sampler (NUTS), and language bindings in Julia, Python, and R.

It is intended to be a counterpart to BridgeStan, which provides a C interface to the methods of a Stan model.

Similar packages are PyStan and RStan. TinyStan differs from those packages by working at a lower level of interaction between the user's language and Stan, in a way which should be more portable. No language-specific code is required to compile TinyStan, and the same model can be used from any of the supported languages.
