Model Builder for Item Factor Analysis with OpenMx
Joshua N. Pritikin and Karen M. Schmidt , The R Journal (2016) 8:1, pages 182-203.

Abstract We introduce a shiny web application to facilitate the construction of Item Factor Analysis (a.k.a. Item Response Theory) models using the OpenMx package. The web application assists with importing data, outcome recoding, and model specification. However, the app does not conduct any analysis but, rather, generates an analysis script. Generated Rmarkdown output serves dual purposes: to analyze a data set and demonstrate good programming practices. The app can be used as a teaching tool or as a starting point for custom analysis scripts.
