This would be an improved functionality.

Users can upload their resume document files, and this program reads and generates the data file for faster html build.

I'm actually interested in researching this and hopefully work on it as the project goes.
Could you expand on this functionality a bit more?

Thanks @ooHAoo!

The ultimate goal of this project is that this program generates the portfolio html file based on the user resume. Reading the resume document files(such as .docx or .pdf) and getting the data as some data formats(json, xml, txt, etc) are needed for generating process.

Currently, I added a console application to generate html file based on the user input; user has to type all information manually, which is inconvenient. So, I think it would be better if user just upload the file, and this program can generate automatically.

Please feel free to ask if you have other questions.

I found one package, called dotnet-mammoth. This package enables us to convert .docx file to html file or raw text file, running on C# .NET. Maybe we can use this to get all contents from user's resume and generate html file.
