abstract: Specifying 'lavaan' models manually can be time consuming when multiple
  similar models are required. The 'semFromKeys' package streamlines the process of
  running 'lavaan' models by generating model code from simple keys lists and running
  entire collections of models at once. The package was inspired by the process used
  in the code for Bainbridge, T. F., Ludeke, S. G., & Smillie, L. D. (2022) <https://doi.org/10.1037/pspp0000395>.
  The package also optionally checks that identical models have not been run on the
  same data, which saves time when code needs to be run again.
