Tech recruiter here.

Love the templates, they are very readable.

Yet, the biggest problem with such builders is that people hate data-entry.

Thank you!

I know, I wanted to add a LinkedIn integration but they don't allow it unless you're a partner.

So, I tried to mitigate the "data-entry hate" by showing the resume being updated in real time.

killer feature suggestion: You can ask people to download a pdf from their Linkedin profile and parse that (it is doable because it is standardized and a lot of startups depend on it, so unlikely that Linkedin will change it)

What did you use to generate the resumes?

I've used react-pdf[1] to generate the resumes and react-pdf[2] to display them
