OpenResume Builder screenshot

Latest release: v2.1.0 — autocomplete, autocorrect, and a Word/LibreOffice-style bullet & numbering picker.

In beta (beta branch, not yet released): v2.2.0-beta.1 — a real WYSIWYG bold/italic editor (no visible markup), a month/year date picker, and a Resumatic date-display fix. See the CHANGELOG for the full list.

  • Customizable resume sections — Experience, Education, Skills, Projects, Certifications, and free-form Custom sections; add, remove, rename, and reorder whole sections, and reorder individual entries within a section

  • Three templates — Classic, Modern, and Resumatic (serif, bold header, default template), switchable from a live-thumbnail template gallery

    Template gallery

  • Template / Details / Final Preview workspace — pick a template visually, edit in the section-based form, then check a clean chrome-free preview before exporting

    Final preview

  • In-editor text formatting — bold/italic markup in the Summary field (combinable into bold+italic), a Word/LibreOffice-style bullet & numbering picker (•, ○, ▪, –, 1., a., A., i., I.), an intro-sentence-before-the-list option with a "¶" button to pull a line into/out of the list, and Word-style list editing (Ctrl+]/Ctrl+[ to indent, Enter continues the list at the same level). (In beta: the Experience description, Custom Section, and Skills now use a real WYSIWYG editor — bold/italic render for real with no visible markup, instead of raw **/* symbols.)

    Format toolbar

  • (In beta) Month/year date picker — click a Start/End field (Experience, Education, Projects) for a ‹ Year › navigator and a month grid, with a "Present" quick-pick for End fields; future dates are blocked automatically against the system clock. The field stays plain text underneath, so existing free-text dates keep working.

  • Autocomplete & autocorrect — suggestion dropdowns for Title, Role, Skill, and Degree fields, plus real spellcheck with red underlines and right-click correction suggestions

  • Snapshot backups — take a named, timestamped snapshot at any point, then browse/restore/rename/delete snapshots from a table, with a confirmation warning before restoring

    Snapshots table

  • Autosave status indicator — "Saving…" / "All changes saved" in the toolbar, so you always know your edits are persisted

  • Save / Open as JSON — via the native File menu (Ctrl+O / Ctrl+Shift+S) — keep multiple resume files and reopen them anytime

  • Export to PDF — one click, ready to send to employers

  • AI Improve button — stubbed in for an upcoming AI-assisted rewrite feature
