FlexMyRes

Any artist knows that the best way to win a client is to have them gloss over your portfolio. Even deep computer/data scientists need one. But do you have the time (or dev skills) to make yours?

Inspiration

Art professionals are taught on day one that they must have a π’·π‘’π’Άπ“Šπ“‰π’Ύπ’»π“Šπ“ portfolio to showcase their work to future clients. But the same is not true for computer/data scientists. They are taught to make many projects and have an active GitHub account. This may allow them to show off their skills to other techies but, not all who hire can navigate GitHub.

What it does

Our website allows a user to upload their resume and link their GitHub account. The product uses natural language processing and web scrapping to pull basic sections out of the user's resume and their individual GitHub repositories.

A zip folder filled with HTML and CSS files will then be available for download. They can go ahead and then upload the files into a new repository named "[text].github.io" which will then create a Github page. They also have the option of using the files to beef up their personal domains as well.

The files created will include a 𝓰𝓡𝓸𝓻𝓲𝓸𝓾𝓼 template that will show off their projects and skills in a way that anyone can easily understand without having to download entire repositories!
