Markdown Resume Styles

Turn a simple Markdown document into an elegant resume.

Features

  • PDF generation via wkhtmltopdf
  • Responsive design for multiple device viewport sizes
  • Simple Markdown formatting
  • Single file deployment
  • You can now version control and branch your resume.

Quickstart

php ./build/build.php --source resume/sample.md
php ./build/build.php --source resume/sample.md --pdf

Options

If you want to edit your markdown resume in your editor while watching it update in your browser, run this command:

watch php ./build/build.php -s resume/sample.md -r

This makes the build script run periodically, and html document will refresh every two seconds. Open the ./ouput/sample.html file in your browser, and then just save your markdown document when you want to see a fresh preview.

Development

Markdown is limited to basic html markup. Follow the resume/sample.md file as a guideline. This file includes various headers and several nested elements. This allows us to construct a semantic HTML document for the resume, and then use a CSS rules to display a very nice resume. Note that because we have very few ways to nest or identify elements that many of the css rules are based on descendant and adjacent selectors.

TODO

  • Additional styles
  • Google Analytics include
  • Command line documentation

Acknowledgments

The initial inspiration is from the Sample Resume Template. However, no HTML from that project has been used in this. General layout has been reused, and media queries have been added. It's a nice template, and if you are a more comfortable with html than markdown, you should use it.
