Dear Matthieu,

I echo the sentiments from Craig, and Ben. Creating an app seems vastly simplistic to this complicated question that at the end may not have a single ‘right answer’. In addition, this process can be rather iterative even for experienced imaging scientists.

Perhaps you can point them to a recent AIC review. I wonder if they may change their mind about an app.

Dear all,

I've been repetitively asked by some users if I could build a Web app that would guide them through a series of questions (like a personality test) to the ideal microscope(s) for their experiment.  Does anyone have experience with this?  Which app have you used?

Obviously, I'd rather they come and talk but maybe I'm just scary :-)

Sincerely,

Matthieu
