Aswin — Resume

Single-page resume authored as a self-contained HTML/CSS file and rendered to PDF on demand by a Cloudflare Worker using Browser Run (managed headless Chromium). No design tool, no lock-in — edit the source, push, done.

The Worker renders the PDF the first time a given resume version is requested, caches it in KV, and serves the cached copy after that. Editing resume.html changes the bundled HTML, which changes its content hash, which transparently triggers a re-render on the next request.

How it fits together

                                                                   │  bundled into
                                                                   ▼
GET /Aswin_Resume.pdf ─▶ Worker ─ KV hit? ─▶ serve cached PDF
                                  └ miss ──▶ Browser Run renders ─▶ cache ─▶ serve

Fonts are subset + embedded so Browser Run renders byte-for-byte what you see locally, independent of the render container's installed fonts.

Files

• resume.html — the resume (all styling is inline CSS). Source of truth.
• photo.jpg — headshot (circular crop is done in CSS).
• fonts/ — Liberation Sans faces, subset to the glyphs the resume uses and converted to WOFF2 (~5 KB each). Regenerate from a full TTF only if the text starts using new characters.
• scripts/embed.mjs — inlines the fonts (base64 WOFF2) and photo into resume.html, emitting the self-contained resume.embedded.html.
• src/worker.ts — the Worker: renders via Browser Run, caches in KV, serves the viewer at / and the PDF at /Aswin_Resume.pdf.
• wrangler.jsonc — Worker config (browser binding, KV namespace, text-module rule).
• build.sh — local-only: renders resume.html → Aswin_Resume.pdf with your own Chromium, for quick offline previews. Not used in production.

resume.embedded.html and Aswin_Resume.pdf are generated artifacts and are not committed.

Develop & deploy

npm install
npm run embed          # build resume.embedded.html (fonts + photo inlined)
npm run dev            # wrangler dev — local Worker (Browser Run runs remotely)
npm run deploy         # embed + wrangler deploy

Deploys are wired through Cloudflare Workers' Git integration: push to main deploys production (resume.aswincloud.com), and pull requests get their own preview URL automatically — no GitHub Actions.

One-time setup

1. Create a KV namespace and put its id in wrangler.jsonc (PDF_CACHE binding).
2. Enable the Browser Run binding on the Worker.
3. In the Cloudflare dashboard, connect this repo (Workers & Pages → Builds) with build command npm run deploy.
4. Add the custom domain resume.aswincloud.com to the Worker.

Local PDF preview without Cloudflare

BROWSER=$(which google-chrome) ./build.sh   # or any Chrome/Chromium

Uses your local browser; needs Liberation Sans installed.

Design

Navy (#16215a) sidebar with gold (#c9a86b) accents, circular photo, contact block with inline-SVG icons, skills / education / certifications in the sidebar; profile, an experience timeline, and projects in the main column. The sidebar color is a split linear-gradient on body so it extends to the page edge. Layout is tuned to fit a single A4 page.
