PROBLEM
Many resume builders require accounts, store personal data on servers, or add friction before a usable PDF. Job seekers need a fast, private path from draft to print-ready resume.

Personal Project
Resume Lab
Resume Lab lets you choose a template, fill in details, preview live, and export a clean PDF entirely in the browser. Drafts stay in local storage, nothing is uploaded to a server, and six templates cover simple, medium, advanced, and custom layouts.
