MatchingTools is a Python library for doing symbolic calculations in
effective field theory.

It provides the tools to create a Lagrangian and integrate out heavy
fields at the tree level. It also includes functions for applying
customizable transformations (for example, Fierz identities or
simplification using equations of motion of the light fields) to the
effective Lagrangian to simplify it or write it in terms of a chosen
effective operator basis.
