 epiph
 ======
 
 epiph is a webapp to facilitate psychological trials based on questionnaires.
 You can enter your own questionnaires with multiple question/answer types
 (multiple-choice (single/multi selection), text, date, etc.).
 Design your study and schedule visits by defining which questionnaires
 have to be filled out in which visit. After creating patients,
 you are ready to fill out questionnaires. Epiph supports exporting the
 gathered answers as a csv or save it to a (MongoDB) collection for direct
 access from multiple statistic tools (ex. R).
 
 ## Usage
 
 ### Development / run locally
 
 This webapp is based on [Meteor](http://meteor.com).
 If you haven't installed it already, this is how you get it.
 
 ```
 curl https://install.meteor.com/ | sh
 ```
 
 Once meteor is installed, this command checks out the repo and starts the app.
 
 ```
 git clone https://github.com/TeamEpiph/epiph.git
 cd epiph/app
 meteor
 ```
 
 The app now runs with an empty database on http://localhost:3000
