Some ways of building online experiments are harder than others. You could take 5 minutes to create a Google Form, or you could spend months learning full-stack web development. The sweet spot for your research is somewhere in-between. I will talk about how to find it, covering graphical tools, JavaScript frameworks, raw code, the simplicity-flexibility trade-off, and the 80:20 rule of software development. I’ll also discuss my current work, combining hand-coded JavaScript with the Gorilla server in a way that’s both flexible and easy for students to learn.
