The first step is to identify which project you want to set up. A PsyNet project is identified with an ‘experiment directory’, which is a folder containing various standardized files defining an experiment implementation, most importantly an experiment.py file and a requirements.txt file. If you are exploring PsyNet for the first time, we recommend that you start with one of the demo experiments, which can be found in the demos folder of the PsyNet repository. Alternatively, you can download one of the example experiments listed on the PsyNet website. If you are planning to create your own experiment, you can start by copying one of the demo experiments to a new directory and modifying it as appropriate.
