Frankenstein (**frank**) is a library that fits the 1D radial brightness profile of an interferometric source given a set of visibilities. It uses a Gaussian process that performs the fit in <1 minute for a typical protoplanetary disc continuum dataset.

Get the code
------------
**frank**'s on [PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/frank), so you can just use pip,
```
pip install frank
```

Documentation
-------------
The [docs](https://discsim.github.io/frank/) have it all.
