Files

• sample_resume.json: Example resume data.
• resume_schema.json: JSON schema for validation.
• generate_resume.py: Script to validate and generate resume.
• resume_template.html: Jinja2 template for HTML/PDF rendering.
• resume.html: Generated HTML resume.
• assets/: Images and logos used in the resume.

Customization & Templating

Edit sample_resume.json to update your resume details. The schema supports:

• Headline, LinkedIn, profile picture
• Experience (single and grouped roles)
• Employment type, company website, company image
• Location, skills, highlights, description
• Certifications (with links)
• Volunteer work

Template Features

• Jinja2 macros for:
  • Formatting experience duration (years/months, hides years if zero)
  • Formatting dates (e.g., 2022-03 → Mar 2022)
• PDF page numbers: Shown at the bottom center of each page (Page X of Y)
• Extra bottom margin for clean PDF layout
• Modern fonts (Montserrat, Roboto)
• Responsive layout for HTML viewing

You can modify resume_template.html to change the layout, add/remove fields, or adjust styling. The template uses Jinja2 syntax and supports all fields present in your JSON.

The script will generate both resume.html and resume.pdf using the template and your data.

To use a different template, update the script or replace resume_template.html with your own.
