Use this template WITHOUT Ruby and Jekyll Installation

1. Fork this repository.
2. Create a gh-pages branch.
3. Edit _config.yml in the gh-pages branch.
   1. Uncomment baseurl: '/iconic-resume'.
   2. Replace the dummy data with your own career details. Put your own logos in the imgs folder.
4. Go to Settings -> Pages page, and select gh-pages as GitHub Pages source.
5. Wait a few moments until the Settings -> Pages page says that "Your site is live at https://username.github.io/iconic-resume/". Go to that address, where username is your GitHub username.
6. Right-click the page and click print... to save your resume in PDF.
7. When you re-edit _config.yml or any other files, and commit the change, it will automatically trigger a GitHub Action to re-build the page. Wait until it finishes, before you refresh the https://username.github.io/iconic-resume/ link. You can view the build progress under the "Actions" tab in your forked repository.

Things to Note

1. By default, your browser add margins to the document when you save the webpage for PDF. This should work fine, but you can also customize the margins in your browser print setting popup if you want to.
2. Be sure to use square (e.g. 512x512) images for icons and logos.
