This is a submission for the GitHub Copilot CLI Challenge
What I Built
I built AI Resume , a full-stack, AI-powered resume builder that takes you from zero to a polished, ATS-friendly PDF resume in under 2 minutes. This isn't just another form-to-PDF tool. It's a complete resume intelligence platform with three distinct AI capabilities:
AI Resume Recreator — Upload any existing PDF resume, and our AI extracts every data point into a fully structured, editable resume across multiple sections. No retyping. No copy-paste. Your old resume is instantly alive in a modern editor.
AI Resume Analyzer — Get a detailed, multi-perspective score on your resume. The AI evaluates it from three lenses — Recruiter, Hiring Manager, and ATS Parser, delivering section-by-section breakdowns, strengths, weaknesses, and actionable improvement suggestions with a visual score ring.
AI Content Enhancer — Stuck on bullet points? Hit the inline AI button on any description field and Gemini rewrites your content with stronger action verbs, quantified achievements, and industry relevant keywords. Each section type (experience, education, projects, awards, etc.) gets its own specialized prompt for maximum relevance. Undo with a single click if you don't like it.
The editor is my MOAT:
- Split-panel layout: forms on the left, pixel-perfect live A4 preview on the right
- Drag-and-drop section along with reordering
- 13 fully customizable resume sections (9 core + 4 optional)
- 4 distinct resume layout templates (Professional, Creative, Modern, Simple)
- Circular photo crop & upload with R2 storage
- Auto-save every second, never lose your work
- Multi-page overflow detection and pagination
- One-click PDF export with print-perfect A4 formatting
Tech stack: Next.js 16 (App Router, RSC, Server Actions) + Cloudflare Workers (D1 database, R2 object storage, KV sessions) + Better Auth (Google OAuth) + Drizzle ORM + Vercel AI SDK 6 + Cloudflare AI Gateway + Google Gemini Flash + Tailwind CSS 4 + shadcn/ui + Framer Motion + Zod v4 validation. Deployed perfectly on -
** P.S - The entire app which is thousands of lines of code, 18 db tables, AI features, resume templates and editor, system design and deployment and ofcourse the full landing page was built from scratch in under 1.5 days using GitHub Copilot. ** vRefer to my first commit for more about this
This project means a lot to me because job seekers deserve better tools. Most resume builders are either too basic (no AI, limited sections) or overpriced with paywalls on every feature. AI Resume is free, fast, and genuinely intelligent, it doesn't just format your resume, it understands it.

My Experience with GitHub Copilot CLI
Well i loved using it, there were few ups and downs in some features but it was fun overall. i enjoyed the generous limits too of it. tbh, copilot wasn't just an assistant on this project, it was my co-pilot (pun intended) in building this production-grade, full-stack application in such a short timeframe that would normally take a week or more for other folks.
I hope my staying awake for 2 nights was worth it and you folks will love it
The Bottom Line
Without GitHub Copilot, this project would have taken me 10-15 days of focused development. With Copilot, I shipped a production-ready, AI-powered, full-stack application within 1.5 days. Copilot turned me from a solo developer into a two-person team, and that made all the difference.
