- osweb implements OSWeb, the online OpenSesame runtime
- opensesame-extension-osweb embeds OSWeb into the OpenSesame user interface
- pyqode.core implements generic code-editor widgets
- pyqode.python implements Python-specific code-editor widgets
- datamatrix implements a tabular data structure that is used by the
loop
item - qdatamatrix implements a Qt widget for editing datamatrix objects
- pseudorandom implements pseudorandomization/ randomization constraints
