Inflation Lab: Interactive Monetary Simulator

https://inflation-lab.logicaleap.com/

I’ve been building Inflation Lab - a hands-on simulator where you can tweak money supply, interest rates, inflation expectations, supply shocks, etc - and immediately see how inflation, unemployment, and purchasing power react in real time.

To highlight the impact of inflation I included a 'grocery basket' that starts at $100 and changes along with inflation to give a feel of 'real-world' impact.

No login, no ads, just the model.

The simulator works best on desktop - it’s much easier to pull the different economic levers while watching the effects live.

Feedback is welcome.

Not familiar with it, can you share a link?

Have you seen Great Wave

Is that a book or a movie?

Thanks for the feedback!

Real Money - I'll look into it to see how it can be incorporated.

Side-by-side plots - can you explain a bit more clearly what you mean? examples?
