Prerequisites

• Node.js: Must be installed (version 12 or higher recommended).
• Package Manager: Any of npm, yarn, or pnpm.

✨ Usage (Run the Resume)

You do not need to clone or install this package. Simply run the command using your preferred Node package manager:

| Package Manager | Command | | :-------------------- | :-------------------- | | NPX (Recommended) | npx kai-resume | | Yarn | yarn dlx kai-resume | | PNPM | pnpm dlx kai-resume |

(Note: npm install -g kai-resume is also possible, but not recommended for this type of ephemeral tool.)

## ✨ Technologies Used

* **Node.js:** Core runtime environment.
* **Chalk:** For terminal text styling and colors.
* **Boxen:** For creating the professional box outline.
* **Figlet:** For generating the ASCII art header.

## 📁 Project Architecture

This project is built following **SOLID** and **DRY** (Don't Repeat Yourself) principles to ensure clean separation of concerns and maintainability.

* `src/index.js`: The main entry point and rendering orchestration (Controller). It imports the data and UI helpers to build the final output.
* `src/resume-data.js`: The **Data Layer** (Model). Holds all personal and professional information.
* `src/ui-helpers.js`: The **Presentation Layer** (View). Contains reusable functions for styling, spacing, and printing standardized resume sections.

## 💡 Future Enhancements (To-Do)

* [ ] Add an interactive menu for section navigation (using `inquirer`).
* [ ] Implement a feature to export contact information as a vCard (`.vcf` file).
