Rasumi documentation
Rasumi is a resume builder with a live PDF preview. You write your resume once, in readable YAML or with simple forms, and watch a live PDF preview update as you type. What you preview is exactly what you download.
#What Rasumi is
A resume is structured content: a name, some contact links, and a list of sections made of entries. Most builders bury that structure inside a drag-and-drop canvas. Rasumi keeps it in the open as a single plain-text document, then typesets it into a print-ready PDF.
Three things follow from that decision:
- You edit the content, not the layout. Templates handle typography, margins, and spacing. Switching templates re-typesets the same words, and nothing you wrote moves.
- The preview is the download. The PDF you see is rendered by the same engine that produces the file, so there is no “export looks different” surprise.
- Your resume is portable data. Because it’s YAML, you can copy it, diff it in git, or keep it in version control alongside your other work.
#How it works
Rasumi gives you two editors over one document. The code editor is a YAML text buffer with syntax highlighting and inline error checking. The visual editor is a set of forms for the same fields. Edit in either (they stay in sync) and a live PDF preview renders the result a beat later. Sign in with Google and every change autosaves to your account.
