## What it is
resume-cli is the official command-line tool for the JSON Resume open-source standard, letting users create, validate, and export resumes from a JSON file to HTML or PDF using community themes. Development has moved into the resume.org monorepo and the CLI was revived for Node 18+ in 2026, though the npm package name is unchanged.

## Use cases
- generate a resume from a  file
- validate resume. against the  resume schema
- export resume to html or pdf
- preview resume locally with live reload
- create a new resume. from scratch
- render resume with a community theme

## When to choose
- you want to store your resume as version-controlled JSON
- you need schema-validated, standard-format resumes
- you want to render resumes to HTML/PDF with community themes
- you prefer a CLI workflow on macOS, Linux, or Windows

## When to avoid
- you want a polished GUI resume builder
- you need a more actively maintained alternative (consider Resumed)
- you need non-JSON resume formats like LaTeX natively

## Facets
- artifact type: cli-tool
- maturity: active
- function: cli, templating, pdf, form-handling
- domain: developer-tools, hr, files
- platform: cli, cross-platform, windows
