How to print or save it as PDF?
Right-click → Print.
Does it support A4 and Letter paper sizes?
Yes, replace all -letter classes with -a4, and uncomment specified code blocks.
What font does it use?
Per Butterick’s free font recommendations, I’ve chosen IBM Plex.
Why it’s made?
I couldn’t find any formal or professional résumé (CV) website with good typography, that is optimized for print, pdf, and mobile. Also, researching what recruiters want, my priorities were fast scanning time and all content to fit on one page.
Navigate to the base directory:
cd universal-resume
Install the dependencies:
npm install
Start the development server:
npm run serve
Only generate CSS that is used (which results in much smaller file size):
npm run public
public/index.html is the location where the content is inserted. By copy-pasting HTML — add pages, sections, articles, or other types.
npm run public will make public directory ready for drag-n-drop to, for example, https://app.netlify.com/drop (registration required beforehand).
Tailwind CSS is a highly customizable, low-level CSS framework that gives you all of the building blocks you need to build bespoke designs without any annoying opinionated styles you have to fight to override. It has great documentation.
You rarely need to do anything outside the index.html. Use together a bunch of pre-made utility classes that reflect a certain design system. There’s no cascade or selector specificity. This results in faster, and much more pleasurable workflow, especially long-term.
Code from tailwind.config.js and tailwind.css compiles to public/style.css. Default tailwind CSS is overwritten or extended with tailwind.config.js.
Here is the default tailwind config: defaultConfig.stub.js, and here’s the additional information from the tailwind documentation: theme.
Need to change CSS in the old way — add a class to the HTML element and write CSS inside the tailwind.css file. You don’t need to follow the tailwindcss way.
Beneath <!-- Column -->, removing col-fill class will make both columns equally tall.
Important: Page will break in the form of additional columns if there is too much content for one page.
Change the default size (letter) to A4:
1. Inside public/index.html, replace every -letter with -a4.
2. Inside tailwind.config.js, uncomment code block below /* For A4 size */, then comment code block below `/* For Letter size */
3. Inside tailwind.css, uncomment code below /* For A4 size */, then comment code below /* For Letter size */
Right-click → Print.
Also, choose the Save as PDF option if needed.
By expanding More Settings, change Page Size to A4 or Letter.
File → Print.
Choose A4 or Letter size by navigating to Properties → Advanced → Paper Size.
File → Print.
By clicking on the Page Setup button, you are taken to the window to choose A4 or Letter size.
Disable search engine indexing by adding the following code to the document <head>:
<meta name="robots" content="noindex">
