Cloud computing??
Does anyone have any tips for how I go about running extensive computations in JASP on some cloud-computation service such as AWS?
Thanks,
Philip

Hello Philip,
Theoretically it is possible to run JASP headless (without a GUI) but it isn't very useful.
We are working on making all JASP analyses available directly in R and once we have that you could use that to run JASP-analyses in R on AWS or some other cloudcomputation service.
Until then the only thing you could do (unless you are adept in R, in which case you could already use the JASP analyses but it requires a bit of fiddling) is running JASP in a VNC-server or something.
Or on a linux server with X11 forwarding over SSH enabled and animations off (but this would require you to keep it open all the time...).
So basically I'd say it is only possible with a lot of manual intervention right now and not recommended.
Unless you are adept at R and then the suggestion would be to run R on AWS/etc. If you want to try that out I could show you some setup that we use for unittests etc. But again, a lot of manual intervention needed.
Hope this helps!
