HUSTLE-tools: A One-Stop Shop for WFC3/UVIS G280 Data Reduction

HUSTLE-tools is a one-stop shop Python package for extracting precise 1D spectral time series from WFC3/UVIS G280 time-series obserations. HUSTLE-tools processes the raw *flt.fits files of your observation with a user-friendly interface and easily-replicable reduction instructions supplied from .hustle configuration files.

HUSTLE-tools is under active development - stay tuned for future updates which will include tools for exoplanet transmission and emission spectrum fitting!
