🚀 AI Career Roadmap Generator

A simple AI-powered web application that generates personalized career roadmaps using the DeepSeek R1 model through the OpenRouter API.


📌 About the Project

Choosing a career path in technology can be confusing due to the large number of skills, tools, and learning paths available. This project helps users generate a structured career roadmap using AI.

Users simply enter their desired career (for example: AI Engineer, Data Scientist, or AI Researcher) and the application generates a step-by-step learning plan including skills, tools, projects, and timelines.


💡 Inspiration

The project was inspired by the challenge many students face when trying to understand how to start a career in AI and technology. I wanted to build a simple AI tool that could guide beginners with a structured roadmap.


⚙️ How It Works

  1. The user enters their OpenRouter API key.
  2. The user types their desired career path.
  3. The app sends a request to the DeepSeek R1 AI model using the OpenRouter API.
  4. The AI generates a career roadmap including:
    • Skills to learn
    • Tools to use
    • Projects to build
    • Suggested timeline
