This is a Django app powered by the Django Rest Framework (DRF) that provides a sample of a simple streaming endpoint with HTTP streaming of a CSV file generation.

These instructions will help you set up and run the project on your local machine for development and testing purposes.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure you have the following installed:

• Python (3.x recommended)
• pip (Python package manager)
• Virtual environment (optional but recommended) like pipenv
