Working with Tony Stark, we developed a set of software tools to quickly process and analyze data taken with the Parallel Imager for Southern Cosmological Observations (PISCO).
The software developed by PISCO is available on the Stubbs GitHub page:
https://github.com/stubbslab/PISCO
The project was shelved before completion, as COVID made continued PISCO observations impossible for an extended period of time. But good progress was made. An incomplete set of instructions for using the data set is available (and editable - please feel free to update) at this Overleaf page:

Producing Black Widow Light Curves with PISCO
As an example of what PISCO (and this analysis software) are capable of, we observed and analyzed a Black Widow Pulsar. We detail those results on this page.
The results were not published, as this object already had a well understood light curve (Sasha regrets not looking for less well-observed targets prior to what turned out to be the instrument's last pre-COVID observing run). However, the results do nonetheless provide a good illustration of what PISCO (and this analysis code) can do with transient objects.
