QuickCV

Hi HN, I built a free tool to check how "ATS-friendly" a resume is. I noticed that most resume checkers force you to create an account before showing you the results, or they just grep for keywords. I wanted to build something that actually parses the PDF structure similar to how a real Applicant Tracking System does, but without the "signup wall" friction. The stack is Next.js + `unpdf` for parsing + an LLM layer to analyze the extracted entities (skills, experience, education) against standard job descripti patterns. How it works: 1. It validates the PDF (magic bytes check). 2. Uses…

  • I made a built-from scratch Wayland Compositor to display any GUI app* in the terminal! I think there is a lot of unexplored potential in custom Wayland compositors, a lot of really cool things you can embed existing applications into! So, I started with embedding apps into the terminal because that is the easiest input/output (output is just utf-8 and I use the great `chafa` library for that, and I just read from stdin for the input). If you have any other ideas for cool Wayland compositors, let me know. I purposedly wrote 80% the app in Typescript to appeal to the most developers and…

    Years ago I stumbled across a basic version of this concept and it stuck with me. I knew if I was ever going to take on such a project, it would need to be flawless, but without coding experience it was just another idea that would never happen. By the end of 2024, as AI coding tools exploded everywhere, I finally had a way to make it real. I started from zero knowledge and spent months collaborating with AI agents as a learning experience.
