title: 'lvmPlot: Publication-Quality Diagrams for Latent Variable Models'
version: 0.1.0
abstract: Converts output from latent variable model tools into publication-ready
  path diagrams and model schematics. 'lavaan' fit objects and parameter tables are
  supported as a primary workflow, with graph adapters for objects from 'blavaan',
  'lavaan.mi', 'semPlot', 'mirt', 'eRm', 'OpenMx', 'psych', 'poLCA', 'mclust', 'flexmix',
  'lcmm', 'tidyLPA', and 'MplusAutomation' workflows when those packages are available.
  Supports structural equation and confirmatory factor analysis diagrams, multilevel
  structural equation models, growth models, higher-order factor models, latent class
  and profile models, item response theory models, and common mixture outputs through
  a unified graph grammar with model-aware defaults, geometry diagnostics, layout
  quality scoring, automatic layout selection, customizable publication styles, 'RStudio'
  preview, SVG/PDF/PNG export, 'TikZ' output, and reproducible publication bundles.
