Hacky theme for creating minimalist and modern cover letters using JSON Resume standard.
If you are looking for a complete resume theme, maybe you would like to take a look at jsonresume-theme-actual.
JSON Resume is a community driven open source initiative to create JSON-based standard for resumes.
- node.js runtime with resume-cli
npm install -g resume-cli
- Create your resume.json file (you can start by editing this)
- Create your cover-letter.md file (optional)
You can inform the body of your letter by adding the
resume.basics.coverLetter
to yourresume.json
file, or by creating a filecover-letter.md
file
npm install jsonresume-theme-actual-letter
resume export letter.pdf --format pdf --theme actual-letter
resume export letter.html --format html --theme actual-letter
git clone git@github.com:davcd/jsonresume-theme-actual-letter.git
cd jsonresume-theme-actual-letter
npm install
gulp
You can live edit any .scss or .pug file
This theme supports only the resume.basics
JSON path
{
"basics": {
"name": "Richard Hendriks",
"email": "rhendriks@mail.com",
"phone": "(912) 555-4321",
"coverLetter": "Dear Robert C. Martin, I want to express my interest in the open position...",
"location": {
"city": "San Francisco",
"countryCode": "US",
"region": "California"
}
}
}
resume.basics.coverLetter
supports markdown
If resume.basics.coverLetter
JSON path is missing, this theme will look for a cover-letter.md
file to retrieve the body of the letter
