We are running a virtual hackathon for #hacktober! Info and signup here: jspsych.github.io/hackathon/virtual_2025.html We will be hosting drop in office hours help during the hackathon, so this is a great chance to level up your jspsych skills!

This uses WebGazer + jsPsych to test the viability of online eye tracking in five case studies.

Very cool to have been involved with this, such a great opportunity to learn about contributing to open source software! ⌨️

That's a wrap on our first ever hackathon! Thanks to all of the wonderful people who attended. Lots of amazing projects and collaborations got started. 🥳

At Grand Central in NYC on the last leg of my Seattle WA -> Poughkeepsie NY trip to attend the @jspsych.org hackathon. Exciting!!! I'd love to hear what you think we should be working on. What is jsPsych missing? What are the pain points?

jspsych will soon* support generating psych-ds metadata automatically from an experiment timeline. we have done most of the implementation and are ironing out the final details. *probably summer 2025

We're hosting a hackathon in May! This is aimed at jsPsych users who want to learn how to contribute to open source software and extend jsPsych. It's free, and we'll cover travel expenses. Learn more and sign up here: jspsych.github.io/hackathon/sp...

If anyone needs a Visual Pattern Task (VPT) for jsPsych experiments, I have a work-in-progress. Feel free to try it out and reach out if you need more customisations or data out of it. #research #jspsych #workingmemory stoosepp.com/13022025/jsp...
