Intro Video What is surveydown? surveydown is an open-source, markdown-based platform for programmable and reproducible Surveys using R, Quarto, Shiny, and PostgreSQL databases like Supabase. Here’s how it works: 1. Design your survey as a Quarto document using markdown and R code. 2. Render your survey into a shiny app that can be hosted online and sent to respondents. 3. Store survey responses in a PostgreSQL database - we recommend Supabase as a free, secure, and easy to use option. The {surveydown} R package provides functions to bring this all together. See the complete documentation to get started making your own surveydown survey! Why surveydown? Most survey platforms (e.g., Google forms, Qualtrics, etc.) use graphic interfaces or spreadsheets to define survey content, making version control, collaboration, and reproducibility difficult or impossible. The surveydown package was designed to address these problems. As an open-source, markdown-based platform, all survey content is defined using plain text (markdown and R code) in two files: - survey.qmd : A Quarto document that contains the survey content (pages, questions, etc). - app.R : An R script defining a shiny app that contains global settings (libraries, database configuration, etc.) and server configuration options (e.g., conditional skipping / display, etc.).
