# 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
## Latest PDFs
The most recent public versions are always available at:
- Resume: `https://github.com/USERNAME/resume-cv/releases/download/latest/resume.pdf`
- CV: `https://github.com/USERNAME/resume-cv/releases/download/latest/cv.pdf`
Replace `USERNAME` with your GitHub username after forking.

## 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](../../actions) and [Releases](../../releases).
