If you're a software developer

This repository is simply a guide to where vets.gov related projects live and what they are.

Projects
vets-website

This is the main website for content and information on vets.gov. In fact, when you go to https://www.vets.gov, this is the code that you hit. In other words, it's the frontend that sits on top of the backend (which is vets-api).

vets-api

Vets.gov provides data and services from a great many legacy systems. To make it easy to develop modern frontends (such as vets-website) that are reliably available and easy to build, we've created a REST/JSON API that sits on top of all these older things. These APIs and shared services are in this project.

gi-bill-comparison-tool

Veterans can go back to school using the GI Bill benefits, but finding a good school is a challenge. This is an easy to use search engine for finding schools and educational institutions based on veteran-related criteria.

This project will be deprecated when it is ported to vets-website and vets-api.

veterans-employment-center

Veterans have a lot of transferrable skills from their years of service, but it can be challenging to communicate this to employers. Veterans Employment Center helps veterans build resumes and find veteran friendly employers.

This project will be deprecated when it is ported to vets-website and vets-api.
