Hi @npechl and thanks for your submission. Unfortunately it is out of scope for JOSS in terms of substantial scholarly impact having fewer than 300 lines of code, for which I will desk reject it. Please note other venues for potential publication here you might consider pursuing: https://joss.readthedocs.io/en/latest/submitting.html#other-venues-for-reviewing-and-publishing-software-packages
