history
Project history and usage
YAMLResume is a resume-as-code tool that stores resume content in YAML and generates professional outputs such as PDF, LaTeX, Markdown, and HTML. It is implemented in TypeScript and is presented as the open-source core of PPResume.
Project history
The repository was created on 2025-04-09. The README says the project began as the core typesetting engine for PPResume, a LaTeX-based resume builder, and was open sourced so users could avoid vendor lock-in.
The design principle is separation of concerns: content is drafted as human-readable YAML, then rendered through a pluggable typesetting engine. The README describes LaTeX as the default typesetting path and also notes HTML/CSS layout support.
Adoption history
YAMLResume is young but visibly packaged as a cross-ecosystem CLI: the README documents npm, Yarn, pnpm, Bun, Homebrew, and Docker usage, plus badges for npm and Docker distribution. The supplied package data confirms Homebrew packaging.
Its adoption niche overlaps resume builders, JSON Resume users, and developers who want resumes in version control. The ecosystem list includes create-yamlresume for scaffolding projects, json2yamlresume for conversion from JSON Resume, and a GitHub Action for automated PDF generation.
How it is used
Typical usage starts with `yamlresume new my-resume.yml`, then `yamlresume build my-resume.yml` to generate PDF, LaTeX, Markdown, and HTML outputs. The `dev` command watches the YAML file and rebuilds on change.
The CLI also documents commands for templates, languages, validation, and help. Generating PDFs requires a typesetting engine such as XeTeX or Tectonic, while the resume content itself remains a YAML file.
Why package nerds care
YAMLResume is package-nerd interesting because it turns a personal document workflow into a reproducible CLI pipeline: source-controlled YAML in, generated artifacts out, with package-manager, Docker, and CI entry points.
It also shows the modern resume-as-code lineage: JSON Resume compatibility, GitHub Actions automation, template management, and multiple output formats, but with YAML chosen for human editing.
