It's bonkers that in academic science we spend hours obsessing over the wording of a paper, but often only one person has seen the code that produced the results! 2/N

Yes, PsychoPy generally uses iohub for eye tracking. Unlike pygaze that
- runs in a separate process at a high sampling rate without needing with stimulus timing
- can save its own datafile (hdf5) although you can just ignore that if you prefer the format the tracker itself uses

People often ask how to take in-lab experiments online.
With PsychoPy, you can sync your experiments to Pavlovia and run them online.
It's also simple to connect with any recruitment platform that accepts a URL.
