jsPsych is a JavaScript library for creating behavioral experiments that run in a web browser. jsPsych provides a framework for defining experiments using a set of flexible plugins that create different kinds of events and tasks and collect different kinds of data. By assembling these different plugins together, it is possible to create a wide range of online experiments. jsPsych is a JavaScript library for creating behavioral experiments that run in a web browser.

jsPsych experiments are created using the languages of the Web: HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. JavaScript is the programming language used by web browsers. It provides the most control and flexibility for creating web-based experiments, and allows for easy integration with other JavaScript libraries and server-side tools. Don't have JavaScript experience? Don't worry! jsPsych was designed to make creating online experiments as easy as possible for people without web development experience. jsPsych experiments are created using the languages of the Web: HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.

This gives you the flexibility to do exactly what you want, while still taking advantage of jsPsych's general experiment-building framework.
