Resumy | An AI-Powered Resume Builder for Students and Developers

GitHub “Finish-Up-A-Thon” Challenge Submission

This is a submission for the GitHub Finish-Up-A-Thon Challenge

What I Built

I built Resumy.live, an AI-powered resume builder and resume analysis platform for students and early-career developers.

The goal is simple: help people create better resumes faster, get AI feedback on their resume, and feel more confident applying for internships and jobs.

As a student applying myself, this project felt personal—I wanted to build something genuinely useful that I would use too.

Code: GitHub Repository


The Comeback Story

Resumy wasn’t a new project for me—I had already built it earlier, but it still had unfinished parts and stability issues.

I chose this project again because I believed the idea still mattered and I didn’t want to leave it half done.

For this challenge I focused on finishing and improving the important parts:

  • Improved overall stability
  • Better AI resume analysis flow
  • Cleaner resume editing experience
  • Refactored parts of the codebase

This time the goal wasn’t just building a prototype—it was making it reliable enough for real users.

That’s why I came back to Resumy.


My Experience with GitHub Copilot

GitHub Copilot helped a lot during development.

It sped up repetitive coding, helped during refactoring, and made debugging older parts of the project much easier.

The biggest help was momentum—coming back to an older project can feel hard, and Copilot helped me move faster and actually finish what I started.
