The Journal Information System is a Django-based RESTful API that provides endpoints for efficiently and structurally managing scientific journal data. This project uses the Django REST Framework, and API documentation is available through Swagger and Redoc.

• Authentication and user management
• CRUD operations for journal information
• Relations with institutions, countries, and currencies
• API documentation (Swagger, Redoc, OpenAPI)

git clone https://github.com/tarokeitaro/sij-backend.git
cd sij-backend

python -m venv venv 

Activate the Virtual Environment:

source venv/bin/activate # Linux/macOS

Create a .env file in the root directory based on the example file:

cd sij
cp .env.example .env

Then adjust the environment values accordingly.
