This is a project that I used to experiment more with the capabilities of Jekyll and to make revising a resume a lot simpler. Rather than spending time trying to fine-tune the formatting of a resume made in Word every time I changed a sentence, I could instead just edit a .yml file and output a perfectly formatted resume every time. This was designed to be either included as part of an existing Jekyll site or as a standalone page.
As everyone has different needs for the content of their resume, I've made an effort to make this pretty customizable. Most configuration is handled in one of two places:
_config.yml - General configuration of overall page. This includes enablement of sections and of FontAwesome icon integration. _data/*.yml - Files containing your personal information.
The Liquid logic is designed such that, if a section is missing for whatever reason, it is simply not included. This effectively means that deleting "objective.yml" will result in a resume without an objective without leaving an unsightly space where it once was, and that leaving out a description for a job and relying solely on bullet points will look just fine.
In an effort to make this a bit more visually appealing, I've also added some basic FontAwesome icon integration. Enablement of this is as simple as signing up for a free account with them and pasting your .js link into _config.yml. While I've not included my own in this demo for obvious reasons, here's a screenshot of what it might look like once enabled.
