Updates for my resume app

https://github.com/danbruegge/resume

This is one of my projects that has a low priority and doesn’t get the love it deserves. But in the end, this is one what saves me a lot of work and I need to adjust only a JSON entry after I’m done with a client.

Done ✅

  1. outputs docx format, besides pdf
    • got the question from recruiters a lot, if I could provide a docx file instead of a pdf
    • after a lot of back and forth with some tools, I finally found a good solution
  2. pdf export working again, now with puppeteer
    • wkhtmltopdf got deprecated
    • it wasn’t installable via homebrew anymore
    • now there is a modern solution where also the pdf looks better, wkhtmltopdf had problems rendering modern css
  3. update to nextjs v15.5

Planned 🏗️

Completing the html to docx conversion is a huge milestone for me. One that I tought will never be done. Because I did not saw the use for it AND docx is a shitty format. 🙃
