Introducing JSON.resume, Simplify CV Generation with Ease

Manage the CV on GitHub with a single JSON config file.

Thursday, May 18, 2023

I’m thrilled to share that the JSON.resume project has reached an important milestone—the proof of concept (POC) is now complete and ready for testing! I have successfully utilized JSON.resume to generate my own CV, which you can explore at cv.dannyspina.com. While there is still work to be done to refine and polish the project, the journey thus far has been both enjoyable and educational, particularly in the realm of PDF generation.

Simplifying CV Generation

The motivation behind JSON.resume was to simplify the process of managing and updating curriculum vitae. The frustrations of formatting and editing text in traditional editors inspired me to create a solution that would allow us to focus on our accomplishments and experiences, rather than getting caught up in design and formatting issues.

The Power of PDF Generation

During the development process, I immersed myself in the fascinating world of PDF generation. I discovered the importance of visually appealing CVs that convey professionalism and capture attention. Through extensive exploration and experimentation, I gained valuable insights into layout, typography, and the art of presenting information effectively in a digital format.

JSON.resume: A Work in Progress

While the POC of JSON.resume is now available for testing, it’s important to note that the project is still a work in progress. There are ongoing efforts to refine and enhance its functionality. Your feedback, suggestions, and contributions are highly appreciated and welcomed. You can find the project’s GitHub repository for further exploration and participation.

The journey with JSON.resume has been a source of personal growth and learning. Exploring the intricacies of PDF generation has been intellectually stimulating and creatively fulfilling. It’s a reminder that in the dynamic field of software development, there is always room to learn, experiment, and evolve.
