About StatWrap

StatWrap is designed as a free and open-source assistive, non-invasive discovery and inventory tool to document research projects. It inventories project assets and organizes information without additional input from the user, while also allowing users to add searchable and filterable notes connected to files to help communicate metadata about intent and analysis steps.

At its core, StatWrap helps you identify, track, and reflect on variation in your research project that could impact the ability to reproduce your work. Variation can happen in many places: (1) people on the project can change over time, so processes may not be consistently executed due to transitions in employment; (2) data changes over time, due to accruing additional cases, adding new variables, or correcting mistakes in existing data; (3) software (e.g. used for data preparation and statistical analysis) evolves as it is edited, improved, and optimized; and (4) software can break or produce different results due to changes ‘under the hood’ such as updates to statistical packages, compilers, or interpreters.
