💼 Installation 💼

Note: ResumeCards uses Jekyll. Please read Jekyll's documentation if you get stuck.

Fork this repo, clone it, and then run:

bundle install

...which installs github-pages gem. After that, run the server:

jekyll serve --watch

Warning

Once the server is started, you must go to http://localhost:4000/resumecards/, since baseurl is set as "/resumecards" initially. To use http://localhost:4000/, change baseurl in _config.yml to "" .

💼 Usage 💼

Editing Your Resume

Edit _posts/card-[1-9].md like this:

---
type: "Work Experience"
heading: "Bizreach"
subheading: "Junior Product Designer"
duration: "October 2013 – September 2014 (1 year)"
location: "Tokyo, Japan"
---

Write in markdown here...

If you don't need some of the metadata, just remove them:

---
type: "Work Experience"
heading: "Bizreach"
