The Exoplanet Characterization ToolKit (ExoCTK) focuses primarily on the atmospheric characterization of exoplanets and provides tools for time-series observation planning, forward modeling, data reduction, limb darkening, light curve fitting, and retrievals. It contains calculators for contamination, visibility, integrations and groups, and includes several Jupyter Notebooks to aid in learning how to use the various tools included in the ExoCTK package.
