We finally published an updated PsychoPy paper, finally described the Builder interface in a journal article!
If you use recent versions of PsychoPy, especially the Builder then you should cite this instead of the outdated Peirce (2007)

Hi,
Is this still the most recent reference for PsychoPy? Is there a more recent one since Pavlovia/online studies started?
Thank you,

The timing study is the first paper to explicitly mention PsychoJS so you could use that. Then if the reviewers want to argue with you about timing precision you’re also ready with some ammunition!
So you could say something like “The experiment was created using PsychoPy Builder interface (Peirce et al 2019) and output to a PsychoJS experiment (Bridges et al 2020).”
