Love it! Thanks for sharing. My only suggestion was that the github/file/text "switcher" tabs are a bit too subtle, it took me a moment to realize why it was asking me for a github username (i.e. Because github was "selected")

Something similar I've used in the past and is open source : https://jsonresume.org/.

Thanks!

I know about it, but: (1) I had slightly different ideas about the format of the CV. (2) I would like to add a personal blog at some point which will be generated from .MD files in the same repository as your resume.

You said that you "have used in the past". Do you use different solution, right now?

Thanks for the feedback! I will definitely look into that :)
