If you’re looking for a job, at some point you’re going to need to save your CV in PDF format to attach it to an application.

I’m a fan of plain text, so I made myself a small tool to generate beautiful, clean, and ATS-friendly PDF files from my CV in Markdown format.

It’s open source, works entirely online, and if you’re not a developer it’s a nice way to get started using GitHub (I’ve tried to make it as easy to use as humanly possible).

Some things I like about it:

• uses Markdown as the source of truth for my CV
• generates nice, clean, simple PDFs by default, but can be customized using CSS
• works online, so I can tweak stuff from my phone
• keeps a history of changes (both in Markdown and in PDF)
• it was really fun to build 😅

Take it for a spin, and let me know if you find it useful!
