title: 'psychds: Creating and Validating ''Psych-DS'' Datasets'
version: 0.1.0
abstract: Provides a 'Shiny' application and helper functions for adopting 'Psych-DS'
  (<https://psych-ds.github.io/>), 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.
