Resume Builder is a form-driven resume editor with four templates (Modern, Classic, Sidebar, Creative), covering personal details, a summary, work experience, education, skills, projects, certifications, and languages. Fill in each section through a tabbed form, reorder the sections with up/down buttons if you want, say, Skills to appear before Experience, and preview the live result in an embedded frame at any point. Your draft autosaves to your browser's local storage as you type, so a refresh or an accidental tab close doesn't wipe your progress. When you're ready, "Download as PDF" opens the finished resume in a new tab and triggers your browser's native print dialog — where choosing "Save as PDF" as the destination is what actually produces the PDF file — and a separate "Download HTML" option gives you the raw, editable HTML file instead.
The form data is compiled into a complete, styled, standalone HTML document — with a different layout and colour accent per template (a single-column header layout for Modern, Classic, and Creative; a two-column sidebar layout with contact details and skills in a side rail for Sidebar) — and that same generated HTML feeds both the live preview iframe and the two export options. "Download as PDF" opens the generated HTML in a new browser tab and immediately calls the browser's native print() function, so the "PDF" is produced by your browser's own print-to-PDF engine when you pick that as the print destination — this is a real, working export path, just not a dedicated PDF-generation library, so the exact PDF layout depends slightly on your browser's own print rendering. "Download HTML" instead saves the same generated document as a plain .html file you can open and edit directly in Word, Google Docs, or any HTML editor. Your draft (all form data, the chosen template, and section order) is serialised to localStorage roughly 400ms after your last keystroke, and reloaded automatically the next time you open the tool.
| Template | Layout | Best suited to |
|---|---|---|
| Modern | Single column, accent left border on the header | Tech and general professional roles |
| Classic | Single column, traditional bottom-border header | Corporate and traditional industries |
| Sidebar | Two-column — contact, skills, certifications, and languages in a coloured side rail | Roles where a compact, visually distinct layout stands out |
| Creative | Single column, full-colour header block | Design, marketing, and media roles |
Switching templates re-renders your existing data into the new layout instantly — nothing you've typed is lost when you compare templates.
There's no dedicated PDF-generation library involved — the button opens your finished resume as a normal web page in a new tab and calls the browser's built-in print() function, the same as pressing Ctrl/Cmd+P on any page. In the print dialog that appears, choosing "Save as PDF" (or "Microsoft Print to PDF" on Windows) as the destination is what actually creates the PDF file. This is a genuinely working export path — every modern browser can print to PDF — but it means the final PDF's exact margins and page breaks follow your browser's print engine rather than a purpose-built PDF renderer, so it's worth a quick check of the print preview (particularly on longer resumes that might spill onto a second page) before saving.
These are two separate controls that work together: the template controls the visual layout and colour scheme, while the section order controls which content appears first, second, and so on within that layout — useful if, say, your projects matter more than your work history for a particular application, and you want Projects to appear right after your summary instead of near the bottom. Reordering is done with up/down arrow buttons next to each section name, not drag-and-drop.
Two-column, sidebar-style resume layouts can be harder for some older Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) to parse correctly, since automated resume scanners sometimes read text in the wrong order when content is split across columns — a well-known general risk with sidebar-style resumes across the industry, not something specific to this tool. If you're applying somewhere you know uses ATS software to pre-screen applications, the single-column Modern or Classic template is the safer choice; save the Sidebar layout for applications you know a human will read directly, or for printed/PDF submissions where parsing isn't a factor.
