[New Plugin] APA 7th Edition – UOC Adaptation (full names in brackets)

Hi everyone,

I've created a Zotero 7 plugin that adapts APA 7th edition citations to the format
required by the Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (UOC) Library.

**What it does:**
- Adds the author's full first name in brackets after initials: `Surname, I. [FirstName]`
- Uses "y" instead of "&" before the last author
- Adds a period after the closing bracket before the year

**Example:**
Standard APA 7:
Redolar Ripoll, D. E. (2023). Neurociencia cognitiva. Editorial Médica Panamericana.

With this plugin:
Redolar Ripoll, D. E. [Diego Emilia]. (2023). Neurociencia cognitiva. Editorial Médica Panamericana.

**Download & installation:**
https://github.com/aramosalv/zotero-apa7-uoc/releases/latest

Just download the .xpi and install it via Tools → Add-ons → gear icon → Install Add-on From File.

The plugin includes a custom CSL style and a bootstrap script that injects full names
from your Zotero data. It only affects bibliographies generated with the "APA 7th edition – UOC"
style — it won't interfere with other styles.

Feedback and contributions are welcome!
