The relationship between the Data Donation Task and Next#

Next#

The data donation task is primarily created to be used in conjunction with [Next](eyra/mono). Next is a software as a service platform developed by [Eyra](https://eyra.co/) to facilitate scientific research.

Port#

Port is a service on Next which you can use to perform a complete data donation study. You can use Port to:

  • Personalize your study

  • Setup data storage for your study

  • Setup the study itself

  • Integrate with qualtrics

  • Administer the data donation task to participants

  • Track the progress of your study

The Data Donation Task#

The data donation task is a fork of [Feldspar](eyra/feldspar) with some extra functionalities added to it. Feldspar is a framework which can be used to build applications specifically for Next. An example of such an application is the data donation task which you can find in this repository.

Frontend#

The data donation task (and Feldspar) is only a front end to be used with Next. In order for it to be used in a live study it needs to be hosted with Next. The wiki will discuss the options you have for using the data donation task in an actual study.
