Does it fit your needs

This generator just works out of the box but we understand that it is not best for all cases and to give clarifications, this is what / what is not this project really is

🎨 NOT A SITE BUILDER

This application would not allow you to drag and drop cards, layouts, and re-position coponents as you wish. It would not give you enough freedom to customize things the way typical site builder works. And in my honest opinion, developers love to create things if not from the ground, a bare minimum boilerplate is more preferable. 🌇 THEMABLE WEB APPLICATION The project use react + react-sematic-ui for front end and could be easily extend by creating / downloading a new theme and placing it inside pages/templates directory. Dont worry, if you prefer the default theme but only need few modifications, you can freely alter the codes/design of the default template in pages/templates/default directory. Another thing that you can do is to remove or add dependencies depending on your needs and you are not tied up in using a single react ui framework. Everything is up to you! 🔔 All templates should be placed inside the pages/templates directory. Docs: [https://me-docs.now.sh/#/template/?id=creating-template]

🚀 SERVERLESS

The main website was deployed to vercel and could be easily hosted on your own account or any other prefered server within a few minutes. You can easily scale things up with no or little cost

🚚 FREE JSON RESUME SERVICE

It provides a built-in parser and templates for your JSON resume file that is hosted on your Github account. It parse the file and serve you with a web-based portfolio that you can freely share to your colleagues and future employers. What makes it more wonderful is you can use the same repository across different projects in a breeze. Want to place a badge somewhere else? don't worry, you can create one with shield.io

SAMPLE BADGE

💡 So what is JSON Resume? JSON resume is an open source initiative to create a JSON-based standard for resumes. For more details, please read their official website

📗 JSON RESUME BOILERPLATE

This portfolio generator only could be easily modified, which reasonably makes it one of your choices for the next boilerplate of your own website or portfolio

Language Support

By default, we use the about-me/index.json as the main source but out-of-the-box you can also serve your resume with different languages you like. All you have to do is commit another file with this recomended filename format index-[ISO alpha-2].json 💡 You can add any extension you wish but we highly recommend to stick with the recomended ISO apha-2 extension

ex. index-ph.json
