That’s really cool! We are also building a package called bmm interfacing with brms, but for measurement models in psychology, and almost ready to submit to CRAN as well. I’m really curious to look at your code and see if we can learn how to do something better, since it’s quite a similar idea of “hacking” brms, but for different types of models.
It would be nice to have somewhere a list of such packages that build on top of brms for estimating custom models. Are you aware of other packages like that, or an existing list?
(edit: I guess packages on cran that us brms will be listed in the reverse dependencies, so I can compile a list of those that fit the bill. Any way to do that for non_cran packages?)
@paul.buerkner if you are up for it (though I understand if you don’t want that), it could be nice to have such a list somewhere on the brms website, maybe under a new section of the “Other packages” tab?
