• Version Control: Maintains a history of changes, allowing easy rollback if needed.
• PDF Generation: Automatically compiles the resume into a high-quality PDF format.
• GitHub Pages Hosting: Deploys the resume on GitHub Pages, providing a permanent and updated URL.

How It Works

1. Update Your Resume: Modify the source .tex file with new content.
2. Commit Changes: Push the changes to the repository.
3. Automated Workflow: GitHub Actions triggers the build process.
4. Deployment: The generated PDF is automatically uploaded and made available.

Setup Instructions

1. Fork or clone this repository.
2. Install LaTeX dependencies (TeX Live recommended).
3. Modify resume.tex with your details.
4. Push the changes to trigger the GitHub Actions workflow.

GitHub Actions Workflow

The workflow is defined in .github/workflows/build.yml and includes:

• Checking out the latest repository state.
• Installing LaTeX dependencies.
• Compiling the .tex file to generate a PDF.
• Deploying the generated PDF as an artifact.
• Creating a new release with the latest resume version, ensuring easy access to past versions.

Example Usage

After making updates to resume.tex, simply commit and push. The workflow will handle:

• Compiling the LaTeX source.
• Generating an updated PDF version.
• Uploading the latest resume automatically.

Why Use This Setup?

• Eliminates manual compilation steps.
• Ensures consistency in resume formatting.
• Provides an automated way to keep the resume readily available.

Permanent Resume URL

The pipeline will deploy your resume on a GitHub Page automatically, and the URL will remain constant. This means you will always have a reliable, up-to-date resume accessible at the same link.
