I hate to be "that guy", but the first thing I noticed is that this doesn't display properly with NoScript installed and enabled.
Considering that pretty much any content page (news stories, Hacker News, etc.) works just find without JavaScript enabled, this is a wee bit disappointing.
Other feedback: the "x" button that appears when hovering over a removable element seems to get more convex when hovered over, and it loses its rounded edges, turning more boxy. This is on Firefox nightly in Linux.
Also, the skills sections with stars causes the remove (x) icon to reflow the skills section, causing an unsightly jump in the skills. A solution could be to absolutely position the remove button so that it doesn't cause that jump.
Further, the subhead below the name appears to not have enough vertical whitespace separating the two -- this occurs in both the HTML representation and the PDF.
"whether" is spelled incorrectly as "wether".
While the page also seems pretty "responsive" the edit and export tools look awkward at points in between the standard mobile sizes and when it makes the jump to the desktop experience -- specifically, the widths of those panels do not match the width of the résumé preview. There also doesn't appear to be any whitespace between the résumé and further panels.
The contact section also looks awkward in the mobile view -- the icons appear to escape the left margin of the rest of the résumé, and there isn't any whitespace between the name and subhead.
In addition, the capitalization for the editing/export tools is inconsistent -- "Export controls" vs. "Edit Tools", and may be too verbose as labels.
The "ease in" effect for the "Beautiful resumes done in seconds!" seems superfluous to me.
Lastly, the sidebar could probably just stay fixed as the user scrolls through the page, so that it is always available, especially for longer documents.
Wishlist item for me would be an import/export in the native data format for this tool -- plaintext as Markdown (or whatever you are using internally) would be handy, as copying information out of an exported PDF can be challenging.
- pc86 12y agoNot the author, but while I agree that it would be nice if NoScript didn't break the site, isn't this closer to an application than a content page?
- yoasif_ 12y agoIt seems to serve as an "application", but if this were to ever become a repository of résumés like Linkedin (seems obvious to me), this would become a problem. Even given that it is an app, a static representation of the app along with a "please enable JavaScript to edit" message would be really handy -- at least I could then get an idea of whether I want to edit the document being shown.
