THE PROBLEM
Job seekers often struggle to write unique, personalized cover letters for every role they apply to.
They either reuse generic templates or spend too much time crafting letters that sound forced and repetitive.
While some AI tools exist, many lack personalization, don't store user data, or require technical skills to operate. There was a need for a tool that feels simple, but powerful and can grow with user needs.
THE SOLUTION
The Cover Letter Generator solves this with a seamless, full-stack experience that walks users from login to letter in just a few steps.
Key Features:
User Authentication – Login & registration system to personalize and manage letter generation per user.
Letter Generation API – POST /api/letters endpoint dynamically creates tailored cover letters based on user input.
Persistent Letter Storage – Users can view and retrieve previously generated letters (GET /api/letters).
Full Stack Build – React frontend for input & results display, Spring Boot backend for processing and storage, MySQL (or H2) database.
Instead of feeling lost or stuck, users get a clear plan and a little encouragement every step of the way.
OUTCOME
This project Cover Letter Generator resulted in a scalable, working application that makes cover letter creation faster, more personal, and more approachable.
It’s ideal for students, early professionals, or anyone applying at scale.
The app structure also serves as a solid template for other content-generation use cases (e.g. resumes, emails, portfolios), and demonstrates strong command over full-stack development with real-world architecture.
