Resume Foundry
A tool that turns a Markdown résumé into clean, recruiter-software-friendly DOCX and PDF, and can also grade an existing résumé for how well the automated screeners will actually read it.
FastAPI · Python 3.12 · 6 layout presets · 60 test functions
Most résumé templates quietly break the software companies use to parse them — tables, columns, and text-in-images that a human sees fine but a machine drops.
- 01Light text on a light page
- Broke
- In the dark themes, the zoom controls turned unreadable — near-white text on a near-white background.
- Why
- Those controls hardcoded a white background and a blue button instead of using the theme’s colors.
- Fix
- Routed them through the shared theme variables so contrast holds in every theme.
- 02Would not deploy
- Broke
- The first deploys to Vercel’s Python runtime failed outright.
- Why
- The FastAPI app was misconfigured for the serverless runtime’s entry point.
- Fix
- Corrected the deploy config so the runtime finds and serves the app.
Evidence before confidence.
