A Digital Resume
Tags: webdev, beginners
Published: 2022-08-30 13:18:04

If you have a resume in hand, let's make it fly over the web. 

A resume is a brief summary of personal and professional experiences, skills, and education history. Its main purpose is to show off your best self to potential. And you should carefully prepare your resume.

## Let start building
I've started this project by creating a folder with index.html, style.css and script.js

index.html is the root file for your project. All the styling part is seperated into style.css and the script.js file handles the events.

**HTML Setup**
Let's get some boiler plate HTML setup and build out everything up.

```

I've included sections for Skills, Tech Stack, Work History and Projects and wrapped all of 'em in a container.

A boiler plate for a project page would be like:

```
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
    <title>Jagadeesh Koyya</title>
</head>
<body>
    <div id="container">
        <a href="index.html">&#x2190; Go Back</a>
        <h1>Built a tool to generate QR Code for handling business websites</h1>

        <ul>
            <li><a href="https://qr-code-generator-eight.vercel.app/" target="_blank">Live Demo</a></li>
            <li><a href="https://github.com/JagadeeshKJ/QR-Code-Generator" target="_blank">Source code</a></li>
        </ul>
        <p>Why remember long websites when you can just click-scan-hit in one go. That's where the cool work of this tool is projected. This tool generates a QR Code for the entered website and it can be saved to access the website 24x7.</p>

        <ul>
            <li>QR Codes are portable and comes in handy.</li>
            <li>Build using qrcode.js, a library of JS.</li>
            <li>QR Code comes in any size and takes little storage.</li>
        </ul>
    </div>
</body>
</html>
```

**JS**

```

 }
```

That's pretty much up to it. I've provided the links to live deployment and the GitHub repo where you can access the source code.🔝

This project is entirely based on a tutorial I've recently come across in @traversymedia. They do really make some awesome content. @dennisivy11 is such a nice guy with skills. 🙌🏻

An extension which I've added in my project is the dark mode feature. You can switch to light/dark mode in just one click and it's cool I guess.
