Description: Provides a 'Shiny' application and helper functions for
adopting 'Psych-DS' (), a
community data standard for organizing and documenting datasets
in the psychological and behavioral sciences inspired by the
Brain Imaging Data Structure ('BIDS'). A guided interface walks
researchers through the dataset creation process, organizing
tabular data files into proper 'Psych-DS' directory structures,
generating new, compliant, keyword-based filenames, and
generating machine-readable 'JSON' metadata. Additional tools
support building and editing data dictionaries with
variable-level descriptions, validating datasets against the
full 'Psych-DS' specification via a bundled 'JavaScript'
validator, and exploring dataset contents interactively.
