Custom URL for your CV

Once you have forked the repo and modified and deployed your CV, the direct URL to the CV will be something like <username>.github.io/<repo-name>/cv.pdf but if you want to have a cleaner looking, easy to remember URL, here's what you can do:

Step 1: Register custom domain

Register an easy to remember URL for your CV. Else if you already have a domain for your personal website, maybe you can use a subdomain for your CV (If your website is your-name.com you can use cv.your-name.com for your CV)

Step 2: Add custom domain to your repo

Create a CNAME entry for your repo by modifying the CNAME file in the main branch. This file should only contain the custom domain like cv.your-name.com. Add the URL like this:

Step 3: Modify the index.html file

Modify the index.html which is in the main branch of the autoCV repo. Modify the URL as shown here. Let's say you want the subdomain to be cv.your-name.com the URL here would become https://cv.your-name.com/cv.pdf

Step 4: Publish Changes

Publish these changes and now you can go to cv.your-name.com and it will redirect to your cv.pdf file
