Are there any Julia packages for propensity score matching? I find the R package MatchIt too slow to use.

Hm. Wikipedia says

> [@](#):
>
> - [R](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R_(programming_language)): propensity score matching is available as part of the `MatchIt` package.[[7]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propensity_score_matching#cite_note-7)[[8]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propensity_score_matching#cite_note-8) It can also easily be implemented manually.[[9]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propensity_score_matching#cite_note-9)

Hi! Did somebody try to use this package: [GitHub - pkmklong/propensity: WIP: Propensity score utilities for Julia](https://github.com/pkmklong/propensity)
