drKarl·Sep 17, 2019
Years ago I was using a Word document for my CV but every time I wanted to update the style it was a pain. I found a command line tool that I have been using for years which allows to decouple data (json) and presentation (web technologies based themes, I created my own theme). The name is hackmyresume (https://github.com/hacksalot/HackMyResume) or fluentcv (https://github.com/fluentdesk/FluentCV). I'm afraid it's no longer maintained but I still use it. It supports JsonResume (JRS) and also its own format FRESH. It outputs to multiple formats including word and pdf.
In Show HN: I made a resume generator for developers
