Resume

A portable LaTeX resume builder.

Prerequisites

• Nix with flakes enabled
• direnv (optionally)

Setup

Enter the dev shell:

nix develop

Or if using direnv:

cp .envrc.example .envrc
direnv allow

Phone number

The phone number is injected at build time via the PHONE_NUMBER environment variable to keep it out of version control. Create a .env file:

echo 'PHONE_NUMBER=+1 555-123-4567' > .env

direnv will load .env automatically. Without it, you can pass it directly:

make PHONE_NUMBER="+1 555-123-4567"

Usage

Build the PDF:

make

Watch for changes and rebuild automatically:

make watch

Generate a PNG preview (for the README):

make preview

This creates resume.png from the PDF using pdftoppm. Commit the PNG to display it in the README on GitHub.

Clean build artifacts:

make clean

You can also build the PDF as a Nix package directly:

nix build

The output will be in result/my_resume.pdf.
