๐Ÿš€ Introducing Reactive Resume v4, a free and open-source resume builder! (alien.top)

Hey r/selfhosted, get ready to craft your story like never before!

Iโ€™m thrilled to announce that Reactive Resume has just launched its latest version, and it's a game-changer in the resume-building space (at least, Iโ€™d like to think so).

Hereโ€™s a glimpse of some of the new features:

  • A sleek, polished user interface that makes navigation a breeze.
  • Faster PDF generation to get your resume out there quicker.
  • Integration with OpenAI for smarter assistance.
  • Brand new, highly customisable templates to fit your unique style.
  • Comprehensive documentation with user-friendly guides.
  • Enhanced security with two-factor authentication.
  • Available in multiple languages, contributed by the community.
  • Quality of life features such as locking resumes, adding personal notes to resumes, tracking views and downloads on your public resume etc.

The best part? Itโ€™s 100% free, forever! No ads, no user tracking, just pure resume-building bliss. Plus, for the tech-savvy, itโ€™s also open-source on GitHub and self-hostable through Docker, something special just for this community.

Ready to give it a spin?
You can visit the website on https://rxresu.me, sure. But you're on r/selfhosted, so you're probably more interested in the "how to host it myself" part of the launch. The link to the repository is right here: https://github.com/AmruthPillai/Reactive-Resume/

Self-hosting Reactive Resume is super simple, compared to the nightmare it was in earlier versions having to ensure multiple services are communicating alright. You can check the GitHub repo (under tools/compose for many docker compose examples of how the project could be set up).

I'm excited to see how you make the most of it!

Do you have upgrade instructions for users who were running it with this image?

โ€‹

image: amruthpillai/reactive-resume:server-latest

Will it break if I just do a docker compose pull?

Yes, unfortunately it's not a straightforward upgrade as there are a lot of things changed since V3 to V4. What I'd suggest is to extract or export your resume json from your running V3 instance and store it locally. Once you have v4 running, simply import the JSON back into the app.

Also it should be pointed out that the name of the image tag has changed. There is no client and server anymore, but just latest.

After a first glance, I can't see info about deployment in the docs: https://docs.rxresu.me/ and no docker-compsoe.yml in the repo either: https://github.com/AmruthPillai/Reactive-Resume/

Do you have a link to the self-deployment instructions or a compose file please?

Found it! Thanks.
