Description

In this talk we present PyrooFit, a fit framework based on python and pandas DataFrames built on top of the ROOT.RooFit package. It currently allows for simple fits of standard PDFs and easy setup of custom PDFs in one or more fit dimensions, but the ultimate goal is to develop it into a general framework independent of a specific back-end.

Finally in this talk we report on general feedback collected by the Belle II analysis community so far.
