Use

Install HackMyResume or a similar tool.
Create a FRESH or JRS résumé.
Run hackmyresume build <your-resume.json> to <final-resume>.all -t <theme-name> to generate all formats for a particular theme. For example:
```
hackmyresume BUILD resume.json TO out/resume.all -t positive
```

Install

The fresh-themes repo is automatically installed when you install HackMyResume. For development or testing purposes, you can install the standalone version via NPM:

[sudo] npm install fresh-themes [--save]

...or fork and clone it from GitHub as usual.

How It Works

FRESH themes are powered by the same templates you're familiar with from Jekyll, Handlebars, MS Word, or your server-side web language of choice. You create a FRESH theme the same way you would any other template: by intermixing markup (HTML, XML, plain text, whatever) with special tags or placeholders:

<h3>{{ job.title }}</h3>
<p>{{ job.summary }}</p>

Run it through a tool, and you get finished markup suitable for display or saving as a document:

<h3>Ninja</h3>
<p>Performed covert ops in feudal Japan.</p>

The only difference between a FRESH theme and your Jekyll blog or MS Word template is that FRESH themes are:

Multiformat. Each FRESH theme can declare multiple formats: HTML, Word, PDF, Markdown, or other future formats.
Markdown-friendly. All FRESH themes support inline Markdown/HTML formatting.
Inheritable. FRESH themes can inherit or "borrow" formats from other themes.
Agnostic. FRESH themes don't mandate that you use a particular templating engine or style: you can use Handlebars, Underscore, or other engines in the future.

If you can do {{ r.name }} or {% highlight html %} in a template file you can work with FRESH themes.

Structure

FRESH themes are structured to allow for flexible generation of documents in multiple formats. Each theme lives in a separate folder and consists of:

A JSON description file.
One or more template files in Handlebars or Underscore format.
Any necessary support files (CSS, LaTeX partials, etc.).
A dedicated README.

Within its containing folder, a theme can have an arbitrary structure provided you either a) follow a standard naming convention or b) specify your theme files in your theme's JSON file.
