The `NetSurvival.jl` package provides the necessary tools to perform estimations and analysis in the Net Survival field. This specialized branch of Survival Analysis focuses on estimating the probability of survival from a specific event of interest, for example a given cancer, without considering other causes of death, in the (unfortunately quite common) case where the cause of death indicatrix is unavailable (or e.g. untrustworthy). Consequently, the so-called *missing indicatrix* issue forbids the use of standard competitive risks survival analysis methods on these datasets. Thus, a few standard estimators were established in the last 50 years, backed by a wide literature.
