SiabaseCV is a free and open source resume builder that is built leveraging Skynet decentralized CDN and Namebase top-level domain (TLD) name registrar to make the mundane tasks of creating, updating and sharing your CV as easy as writing alphabet. With this app, you can create multiple resumes, share them with recruiters through a unique link and print as PDF, all for free, no advertisements, without losing the integrity and privacy of your data.
