+# Markdown Resume 
+
+This repo allows you to build/maintain your resume in a Markdown file, and then publish it into an HTML or PDF file. 
+Technically, you could output it into any file you wanted with pandoc, or wkhtmltopdf, but I wasn't interested in those scenarios so I explore those avenues. 
+
+The inspiration for this project came from my need to look for a job, my need to update my resume, and my desire not to have to write something in Google docs, or Microsoft Word, so I scoured the web for newer way to build/maintain a resume, while doing so I ran into this [project by Sonya Sawtelle](https://sdsawtelle.github.io/blog/output/simple-markdown-resume-with-pandoc-and-wkhtmltopdf.html). 
+
+I modified the CSS for my taste, and noticed that some of the documentation needed to be updated. 
+
+Since Sonya's post is nearly five years old, there have been many changes to the command line utilities that she used, so I've updated this README to reflect those changes. 
+
+# Workflow
+
+The workflow is pretty simple. 
+
+1. Edit the resume.md file. 
+1. Run pandoc to convert the Markdown file to HTML. OR 
+1. Run pandoc to convert the Markdown file into a PDF.
+
+
+The big difference between Sonya's workflow is that if you want, you can convert from MD -> PDF in one step, rather than two. You can still go from MD -> HTML -> PDF, but if you don't want to have an HTML file, you don't have to. 
+
+I also don't feel like supporting/using Microsoft Word, so I'm not even trying to output to .docx. 
+
+
+# Updated instructions for a Mac .. or 2021
+A lot has changed since Sonya wrote her blog post and shared her workflow, so here are some updates on how to get started and building/updating your own resume. 
+
+# Pre-Requisites. 
+## [Pandoc](https://pandoc.org) a universal document converter.
+
+```bash 
+    brew install pandoc 
+```
+
+## [Wkhtmltopdf](https://wkhtmltopdf.org)
+```
+    brew install wkhtmltopdf
+```
+
+## Markdown to HTML 
+```
+pandoc resume.md -f markdown -t html -c resume-stylesheet.css -s -o resume.html
+```
+
+## Markdown to PDF 
+
+```
+pandoc resume.md -f markdown -t pdf --pdf-engine=wkhtmltopdf -c resume-stylesheet.css -s -o resume.pdf
+```
+
+## HTML to PDF 
+
+If you want to convert from HTML to PDF for some reason, you'll need to add a switch to wkhtmltopdf so that it works properly. 
+
+```
+wkhtmltopdf --enable-local-file-access resume.html resume.pdf
+```
+
+# TODO 
+ - [x] [github action](https://github.com/pandoc/pandoc-action-example) will run and create the HTML and PDF file automatically. 
+ - [ ] the Author field in the PDF, it seems to not work when the pdf-engine is set to wkhtmltopdf 
+ - [ ] make a release or a package?
