Reactive Resume makes building resumes straightforward. Pick a template, fill in your details, and export to PDF—no account required for basic use. For those who want more control, the entire application can be self-hosted on your own infrastructure.
Built with privacy as a core principle, Reactive Resume gives you complete ownership of your data. The codebase is fully open-source under the MIT license, with no tracking, no ads, and no hidden costs.
## Sponsors
Reactive Resume stays free, open-source, and independent because companies choose to support the work behind it. Thank you to every sponsor who helps fund hosting, maintenance, and continued development for the community.

| Guide | Description |
| ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------- |
| [Getting Started](https://docs.rxresu.me/getting-started) | First-time setup and basic usage |
| [Self-Hosting](https://docs.rxresu.me/self-hosting/docker) | Deploy on your own server |
| [Development Setup](https://docs.rxresu.me/contributing/development) | Local development environment |

## Self-Hosting
Reactive Resume can be self-hosted using 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 now runs entirely client-side via `@react-pdf/renderer`. New deployments no longer require Browserless, Chromium, or any external print service as a dependency. 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:
```bash
# Docker Hub
docker pull amruthpillai/reactive-resume:latest
# GitHub Container Registry
docker pull ghcr.io/amruthpillai/reactive-resume:latest
```
See the [self-hosting guide](https://docs.rxresu.me/self-hosting/docker) for complete instructions.
