Description
QuPath is a popular open-source platform for visualizing, annotating and analyzing complex images - including whole slide and highly multiplexed datasets. QuPath is written in Java and scriptable with Groovy, which makes it portable, powerful, and... sometimes a pain if you aren't a programmer. It can also be annoying if you are a programmer, but you find Groovy's syntax weird { and impenetrable } and QuPath's API even worse.
This workshop will introduce the key concepts of scripting in QuPath, demonstrate what is possible, and show some Groovy tips and tricks. It will also explore some of the implications of QuPath's design, to explain why some things that are hard in other software might be easy in QuPath - and vice versa.
