My resume

How to Use

Why not make a resume in HTML CSS and Javascript? It's fun, easy and the most native way for an aspiring web developer. To use this library just bundle install and then run start.sh to run guard. Then edit your slim/less files in public/ and watch guard make .html and .css ones. Next open each page in a browser with LiveReload like so.

open public/resume-page1.html

When you are happy with the design print the page and save it into the pdfs/ folder. FireFox on Mac refuses to remove printer margins so it is best to use Chrome/Vivaldi Be sure to unset the url and page number in the browser printing settings. When you are ready output a final pdf using.

bundle exec combine_pdfs.rb

And add the links using

./add_links_to_pdf.pl <Filename>

Voila! The final version will be in final.pdf. You can move it to overwrite the previous pdf. You have a resume made in sweet, sweet slim and less!

Resume for Janet Jeffus

The project uses Guard, so I could write the code and rely on LiveReload to update css and html from the Less and Slim.

There are git submodules I used to get the fonts for transfonter. And I used npm for managing css dependencies.

I converted it from Word's mishmash of tag soup using Nokogiri. Then hand-tweaked the less until it looked good. Then printed each page using Firefox and used combine_pdf to generate the final resume.
