Add intro to fixed effect models sections #435

Closed juanitorduz closed 1 month ago

juanitorduz commented 1 month ago

When looking into the quickstart (https://s3alfisc.github.io/pyfixest/quickstart.html), it seems the audience is expected to know what fixed-effect models are. I think it would be nice to have a notebook/section explaining these models and why they are useful for users who are new to the topic. This would make the documentation more accessible for a wider audience, IMO.

Is this a contribution you would be open to having? :)

s3alfisc commented 1 month ago

Yes, that would be fantastic and much appreciated! I generally think that the notebooks are all a little bit too "dry", and it is indeed not optimal that they assume that every reader has taken a graduate class in econometrics =) I'd be super happy about any contribution that helps in this regard!

So would you like to add more content on the quickstart or have a separate intro notebook?

s3alfisc commented 1 month ago

I would be happy with both, so would be glad to follow your suggestion / preference! =)

I will close this as we have merged #436 =)
