APA papers via R & the papaja package

Snipped content (TLDR version) from several LiveStreams covering the construction of APA papers within R (mostly relying on the `papaja` package).

Recommended workflow for crafting an APA paper entirely within R (each bullet is addressed in turn within the video):
1. install `papaja` package
2. open `papaja` template manuscript
3. download "apa.csl" file from Zotero
a. add `csl` line to YAML
4. add `documentclass` line to YAML
b. add "apa7" as value for `documentclass` line (no download/package required here)
5. use helper packages for Tables and Figures (`papaja`, `jtools` and `flextable` are some options)
6. inline statistics can be pulled directly from statistical objects or can be reported with the help of packages (such as `papaja`)
7. write your citations in BibTex format within a ".bib" file - call up this file within your YAML
