Reactive Resume

[!IMPORTANT] Repository moved: Reactive Resume now lives at reactive-resume/reactive-resume on GitHub. Docker Hub stays at amruthpillai/reactive-resume. GHCR builds now publish to ghcr.io/reactive-resume/reactive-resume. Verified image tags: latest, v5, v5.3, and v5.3.0 (AMD64 and ARM64). The current version was rebuilt and production redeployed for this rename; no new GitHub release or version bump was made. See migration details. GitHub Sponsors and Open Collective funding links remain unchanged.

Self-Hosting

Reactive Resume supports Docker and Vercel Hobby.

[Deploy with Vercel]

Vercel provisions Neon PostgreSQL, private Blob storage, and Upstash Redis through its deployment wizard. Supply two persistent secrets, then deploy. See the Vercel guide for setup, limits, and optional SMTP/OAuth configuration.

For Docker, the stack includes:

• PostgreSQL — Database for storing user data and resumes
• SeaweedFS (optional) — S3-compatible storage for file uploads

From v5.1.0 onwards — PDF generation runs entirely client-side via @react-pdf/renderer. New deployments no longer need Browserless, Chromium, or any external print service. The PRINTER_* and BROWSERLESS_* environment variables are no longer read and can be removed from your .env.

Pull the latest image from Docker Hub or GitHub Container Registry:

# Docker Hubdocker pull amruthpillai/reactive-resume:latest
# GitHub Container Registrydocker pull ghcr.io/reactive-resume/reactive-resume:latest

See the self-hosting guide for complete instructions.
