@empirica/core

The @empirica/core package contains multiple modules that are used by the Empirica platform.

There are two main categories of modules:

• Admin: modules that are used with full access to Tajriba data and functionality. These modules are used by the Empirica Admin Panel and the server.
• Player: modules that are used by the Empirica Player. These modules are used in the frontend.

There is also a console module that is used throughout for logging.

Empirica is built on top of Tajriba, which is a server-side framework for building experiments. Parts of the @empirica/core package are building blocks on top of Tajriba and are not specific to Empirica.

The parts of the @empirica/core package that are specific to Empirica are called classic. They implement the core functionality of Empirica, which are objects such as Batches, Games, Players, Rounds and Stage, and the logic for running Empirica experiments.

The @empirica/core package can be used to build different models of experiments that do not follow the Empirica conventions.
