Running locally

To test locally, run the following in your terminal:

  1. Clone repo locally
  2. bundle install
  3. bundle exec jekyll serve
  4. Open your browser to localhost:4000

Customizing

First you'll want to fork the repo to your own account. Then clone it locally and customize, or use the GitHub web editor to customize.

Options/configuration

Most of the basic customization will take place in the /_config.yml file. Here is a list of customizations available via /_config.yml:

[...write these out...]

Editing content

Most of the content configuration will take place in the /_layouts/resume.html file. Simply edit the markup there accordingly

Publishing to GitHub Pages for free

GitHub Pages will host this for free with your GitHub account. Just make sure you're using a gh-pages branch, and the site will automatically be available at yourusername.github.io/resume-template (you can rename the repo to resume for your own use if you want it to be available at yourusername.github.io/resume). You can also add a CNAME if you want it to be available at a custom domain...

Configuring with your own domain name

To setup your GH Pages site with a custom domain, follow the instructions on the GitHub Help site for that topic.

Themes

Right now resume-template only has one theme. More are coming 🔜 though. ❤️

Roadmap

A feature roadmap is available here. If you features suggestions, please open a new issue.

Contributing

If you spot a bug, or want to improve the code, or even make the dummy content better, you can do the following:

  1. Open an issue describing the bug or feature idea
  2. Fork the project, make changes, and submit a pull request
