Serverless service to generate dynamic resumes from remote GitHub gists,
compliant with;
JSONResume
A community driven open source initiative to create a JSON based standard for resumes
It's lightweight, easy to use and it's perfect to build tools for! JSON Schema is mature enough for writing usable semantics.
Checkout Basic example
Along with headless puppeteer integration for exporting PDF files.
Have you spent countless hours making a resume only to end up having to redo it when you want to change the format? what json resume does is allow for you to input your data in one place and then dynamically generate your resume with different templates
Reads resume.json from one of the following methods:
Important
the <username> is GitHub username
Caution
the user MUST have a public gist with resume.json file
Important
the <gist_id> is the secret gist id
Caution
the user MUST have a compliant JSON file in given gist
Tip
the first JSON file in that gist will be attempted
the file can be named anything
eg; my-private.json
Note
eg;
<gist_id>
6776c2096963f1ca8ddb1817c8674b93
gist.github.com/metaory/6776c2096963f1ca8ddb1817c8674b93
json-resume-service.vercel.app/gist/6776c2096963f1ca8ddb1817c8674b93
