Reactive Resume is a web-based resume/CV builder that lets you create, manage, and export professional resumes from a modern editor. It supports multiple resumes per account, reusable sections, and structured data so you can iterate quickly and keep your career history consistent.

Key Features

  • Visual resume editor with customizable sections (experience, education, skills, projects, etc.)
  • Multiple resumes per user with template-based layouts and theming
  • PDF export for printing/sharing
  • Import/export of resume data (JSON) for backup and portability
  • Versioning/history to track changes over time
  • Public sharing of resumes via unique links (optional/controlled)
  • Multi-language support and configurable basic profile/contact details

Use Cases

  • Maintain a master CV and generate tailored versions for different job applications
  • Keep a portable, backed-up resume dataset (JSON) and re-render to different templates
  • Host an internal resume builder for a team, community, or school program

Limitations and Considerations

  • Collaboration features are limited compared with dedicated collaborative document suites.
  • Output formatting is template-dependent; highly bespoke layouts may require custom template work.

Reactive Resume is well-suited for individuals who want ownership of their resume data and a fast workflow for producing polished PDFs. Its structured approach (data + templates) makes it easy to maintain multiple targeted resumes while keeping a single source of truth.
