Products that do what Local-first resume generator with in-browser PDF rendering does
Built this while applying to various jobs. I was using Claude to generate different resume variants for roles (Flutter, WordPress, fullstack, Python backend, agentic AI/RAG). It worked pretty well, but I kept hitting limits — both in control and credits. I also wanted something more consistent when tailoring resumes for specific job posts. So I built this. Key points: * Multiple variants from one base * Client-side PDF rendering (PDFKit in browser, no server) * Local-first PWA, works offline * JSON import/export * FOSS (open to PRs for templates/features) Live demo:…

Hi HN, I recently created and published an open-source resume builder as a weekend project. The idea came to me while I was mentoring students and noticing common mistakes they made in their resumes that I had also made in the past. I thought to build a tool to help people easily create a modern professional resume with built-in best practices to avoid those mistakes. Top highlights of the resume builder are: 1. Real time UI update as you type 2. ATS friendly to top ATS platforms, e.g. Greenhouse, Lever 3. Privacy focus - no sign up is required and data is stored locally in browser that only…

I built RenderCV because Word kept breaking my layout and LaTeX was overkill. I wanted my CV as a single YAML file (content, design, margins, everything) that I could render with one command. Run rendercv render cv.yaml → get a perfectly typeset PDF. Highlights: 1. Version-controllable: Your CV is just text. Diff it, tag it. 2. LLM-friendly: Paste into ChatGPT, tailor to a job description, paste back, render. Batch-produce variants with terminal AI agents. 3. Perfect typography: Typst under the hood handles pixel-perfect alignment and spacing. 4. Full design control: Margins, fonts, colors,…

Introducing my new AI-powered tool that generates personalized cover letters in seconds! It's powered by GPT-3 and all you need to do is upload the job post and your resume, and the tool uses the language model to analyze and match the keywords and requirements from the job post with your skills and experience. The generated letter can be further customized, and you can create multiple letters quickly and easily. It's still pretty bare-bones so I'm thinking of ways to make this better. I'd appreciate any feedback! Let me know what you think.
