Why I Built This

Creating a professional resume can be challenging for many people. I wanted to build a tool that simplifies this process and helps users create polished resumes without the need for design skills or expensive software.

How I Built It

I built a modular template engine using React components that allows users to customize their resume. I used React-PDF for client-side PDF generation and Zustand for efficient state management. All data is stored locally to ensure privacy.

What I Learned

This project taught me advanced techniques in client-side PDF generation, state management for complex form data, and creating intuitive user interfaces for content creation tools. I also learned how to optimize performance for real-time document previews.
