This markdown file contains all technical documentation related to the setup, deployment, update, and customization of DevHub web application.
DevHub is a web application that makes finding talented developers easy for Hiring Managers. This application is aimed at solving One of the major challenges faced by Hiring Managers, which is the lack of an easy process for finding developer/tech talent. With DevHub, the need for recruiters to visit multiple websites in search of developers has been eliminated. Talented Developers can now be found in a single search. Hiring Managers can search for a developer's information and save it for subsequent review. The primary feature of the site is that all developers' crucial information is fetched from different APIs, this is to ensure that no detail of a developer is left out.

Feedback from Balaji
I appreciate the fact that you stood in gap for Ishika agrawal since she had some other issues. What distinguishes you is that you don't just do the work for the sake of doing it; instead, you strive to make it as perfect as possible. You make the team stronger than it was before. Keep up the good work.

Feedback from Balaji
You are one of the best front-end developers I have ever encountered, yet I saw that you fell short of the expectations that were placed on you. I always value your work, but you should collaborate with others and seek assistance when necessary. Feedback from Omolara
