what is financial-literacy-simulator fr?

This project aims to build a game-like financial life simulator designed specifically for people in India. The idea is to let someone experience fifty years of financial decisions, like taking out a high-interest loan, skipping health insurance, or delaying investments, compressed into about thirty minutes, so they can see the long-term consequences of choices without actually living through them. The team behind it wants the simulator to reflect real Indian financial systems in detail, including income tax rules under both the old and new tax regimes, retirement savings schemes like EPF and PPF, mutual fund investing through SIPs, inflation, and local real estate markets. They describe the project as a proposed Digital Public Good and say it is meant to align with an upcoming national financial education strategy from an Indian government body, and they have written a formal proposal document about this goal. As of now, this is very early stage work. The README is honest that the project is still in a research and design phase rather than having a working simulator. The team has opened around eighty issues to gather input on the underlying financial math and the user experience design before writing much of the actual simulation engine. Their own roadmap lists research, then design, then a minimum viable product, then a fuller alpha version with more complex financial instruments like home loans, followed by a beta test and a stable release, so there is a long way to go before this becomes a usable product. This is a community project that is actively looking for contributors, whether you can code in React, understand accounting and tax rules as a chartered accountant, design interfaces, or simply care about financial literacy in India. People interested in joining are pointed toward a setup guide and a contributing guide, and told to look through the issues tagged for research, design, or good first tasks.
