cveate

This repository contains source code for my Hashnode tutorial series titled "Create a CV/Resume Builder Tool using Django Rest Framework".

CVeate (CV and Create) is an Django application for creating a custom resume/CV similar to Novo Resume and Zety resume builders.

The inspiration behind this project was to build something different. I was tired of DRF beginner tutorials on building todo app, note app or blog.

PS: Delete db.sqlite3 if you do not want to use the sample database I created.
