Build Your Own AI-Powered Resume Builder Using Next.js, React 19 & Gemini AI (Full Source Code)

Modern job seekers expect resume tools to be smart, fast, ATS-friendly, and AI-assisted.
But building such a tool from scratch — parsing PDF/DOCX, extracting skills, generating ATS-ready resumes, providing templates, and creating a full dashboard — can take months of work.

So I decided to create a fully packaged, production-ready AI Resume Builder using:

Next.js 15

React 19

App Router & Server Components

Prisma with PostgreSQL

Gemini AI (Text & Vision) for resume parsing

ShadCN UI

Tailwind CSS

Clerk Authentication

Full ATS scoring engine

PDF/DOCX file processing

Multi-template resume generator

And now I’ve released the entire codebase as a downloadable, production-ready project:

💡 What This Project Includes

This isn’t a demo.
It’s not a starter template.
This is a full SaaS-grade resume builder packed into a single codebase.

Here’s what’s inside:

✔ 1. AI-Powered Resume Parsing (PDF & DOCX)

Using Gemini Vision, the system can extract:

Suggested improvements

Parsing quality is extremely high — even with noisy PDFs.

✔ 2. Clean Next.js 15 Architecture

App Router

Server Components

Edge-ready routes

API Routes

End-to-end type safety

Developers can deploy instantly on:

Vercel

Netlify

✔ 3. ATS Score Engine (Custom Rules)

The project includes:

Keyword matching

Section completeness scoring

Readability metrics

Resume formatting recommendations

This is the same logic modern ATS systems use.

Every page is fully responsive and follows a minimal, clean aesthetic.

Resume Editor

Dashboard

AI Review interface

Templates Gallery

File Upload UI

Success/Failure states

✔ 5. Full Authentication with Clerk
