Resume & CV Generator

A LaTeX-based resume and CV generator with automated builds for both public and private versions. This repository serves two purposes:

1. An actively maintained resume/CV using modern CI/CD practices
2. A template that anyone can fork and customize for their own use

Overview

This project demonstrates professional DevOps practices while providing a beautiful LaTeX resume:

• Automated builds via GitHub Actions for continuous deployment
• Secure handling of sensitive information through environment variables
• Containerized local development with Docker
• Clean separation of content and styling

Using as a Template

1. Fork this repository
2. Copy .secrets-template to .secrets and fill in your personal information
3. Run ./build-local.sh to generate both public and private versions
   • Public version omits sensitive information like phone and address
   • Private version includes all personal details from .secrets
   • The script automatically generates and cleans up temporary files

Modifying Content

The project uses a modular structure to avoid duplication:

• Common sections are stored in shared/sections/
• Styling is defined in shared/style/common.tex
• The resume is a subset of the CV, reusing shared components
• Add new sections by creating files in shared/sections/ and including them with \input{}

CI/CD Pipeline

The repository showcases modern DevOps practices through GitHub Actions:

• Automated PDF generation on every push
• Public version published as GitHub release with stable URLs
• Private version securely generated for repository owner
• Environment variables managed through GitHub Secrets

You can see these practices in action by checking the Actions tab and Releases.
