The Problem

We spend hours writing clean code, only to waste time manually copying project names and descriptions into a Word document for our resume. It’s slow, it’s boring, and it becomes outdated the moment we push our next commit.

The Solution

I built a tool that pulls projects directly from GitHub and turns them into a resume section—automatically.

How It Works

  1. Authenticate with GitHub
  2. Fetch repositories (including descriptions, languages, and update dates)
  3. Format them into a clean, ATS‑friendly layout

Next Steps

I’ll walk through the API logic in a future post. In the meantime, what do you think? Should resumes be treated more like code?
