Folder hierarchy creator for academic research
Description
Folder hierarchy creator for academic research
Usage
folderSystem(overwrite = FALSE)
Arguments
overwrite
Logical. Should existing template files in paper/ be overwritten? Defaults to FALSE, leaving any files the user has already edited untouched.
Details
The function constructs a standardized folder hierarchy encompassing codes/, data/, output/, paper/, and document/. These directories are designated for storing programming scripts, data sets, processed outputs, manuscript drafts (including related images and submission documents), and assorted materials, respectively. This organization facilitates easy retrieval of project components, ensuring that members of Dr. Hu's Amazing Team can efficiently navigate and manage shared resources. This structure is advocated for collaborative projects to maintain uniformity across team operations.
In addition, the manuscript-writing templates bundled with the package (a Quarto/Typst paper template, its main and appendix bibliographies, the OSCOLA citation style, and the citation-prefix Lua filter) are copied into the paper/ folder so a new project starts ready to write.
Value
Invisibly returns NULL. Called for its side effect of creating local folders, placeholder files, a default .gitignore, and the manuscript templates under the project's working directory.
