What tools do people use for Computational Economics?

"QuantEcon:Open source code for economic modeling" https://quantecon.org/ has Python and Julia versions. The Federal Reserve uses Julia in its macroeconomic models: https://frbny-dsge.github.io/DSGE.jl/latest/ . Some economists use Fortran (which is much modernized since FORTRAN 77), and there is a 2018 book Introduction to Computational Economics using Fortran https://www.ce-fortran.com/ . Some Fortran codes in economics, statistics, and time series analysis are listed at https://github.com/Beliavsky/Fortran-code-on-GitHub .
