Ammar Ahmed's Resume

Welcome to the home of my resume! Here I host my data-driven, continously deployed resume made possible by Typst!

✨ How It Works

This section explains the workflow and technologies behind the creation and maintenance of my resume.

• Automated Updates: On every tagged update, the source files are compiled and released with a custom authored GitHub action.
• Data-Driven Resume: Due to the power of Typst, all my resume data is housed in a .yml file. Typst is able to read and parse the data which I used to define custom functions to render my resume!
• Version Control: All tags and releases are semantically versioned. I've also authored a custom post-commit hook which prompts me if I want to tag the commit. The git hook automatically bumps the version based on the latest tag and whether it is a major, minor, or patch change!

Here's how it looks when I make a commit:

>> git add . && git commit -m "Some changes"
[post-commit hook] Commit done!
Would you like to tag this commit? [y/N] y
[current-version]: v1.7
Is this a major change or a minor change? minor
[bumping-version]: v1.8
[main 0d0fce2] Some changes
 2 files changed, 30 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-)

• Testing: Being a NodeJS fan, I set up a package.json in this repo to be able to run yarn commands to compile my resume locally.
