## Overview

This is a Django REST Framework employee-management API. A client request is routed through the project URL configuration and employee router to a ModelViewSet, which uses the serializer for representations and the Employee model for ORM-backed CRUD against SQLite. The README documents the CRUD endpoint and SQLite storage; sampled source confirms the routing and model wiring. Admin registration and authentication behavior are not shown as product-specific workflows.

Main entry points: [`employees/views.py`](https://github.com/rodinaasfour665-ctrl/employee-api/blob/main/employees/views.py) (Employee CRUD), [`employees/models.py`](https://github.com/rodinaasfour665-ctrl/employee-api/blob/main/employees/models.py) (Employee model), [`task/urls.py`](https://github.com/rodinaasfour665-ctrl/employee-api/blob/main/task/urls.py) (Project routes), [`employees/urls.py`](https://github.com/rodinaasfour665-ctrl/employee-api/blob/main/employees/urls.py) (Employee routes)
